PM97076: CLASSNOTFOUNDEXCEPTION DEPLOYING A SERVICE FROM WSDL AS REST

Rational Business Developer Fix Pack 2 (8.5.1.2) for 8.5.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Environment: windows
  Product name: IBM? Rational? Business Developer
  
  Program Version    :  8.5.1
  Description.
  A ClassNotFoundException is thrown when deploying a service.
  
  Deploying a service as REST is where the exception is observed
  after importing a WSDL as an EGL interface and service skeleton.
  
  During skeleton creation an underscore _service is appended to
  the name by default which causes this issue with the REST
  runtime in escaping the underscore.
  
  Once deployed, running the front end to test the service throws
  the ClassNotFoundException also showing an additional 005f entry
  appended to the name whereas the 'real' referenced name for this
  entry is TestService_005fService_Impl.java eg:
  EGL1603E:EGL1603E An error occurred while loading the
  test.services.TestService_005f005fService_Impl service.
  Error:java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:test.services.TestService
  _005f005fService_Impl.

  ****************************************************************
  When invoking REST service, in service provider side, EGL
  REST service runtime will create an instance of LocalProxy
  using the Java reflection, but it appended a duplicated
  alias which is undesirable.
  

Problem conclusion

• The solution is to remove the duplicated alias
  

Temporary fix
