I appreciated mike donaghy's tutorial on using "eclipse web tools"
which i believe to be really IBM's initial contribution to the project.
https://www6.software.ibm.com/developerworks/education/os-wt pservice/os-wtpservice-4-1.html
and i wanted to attempt to follow through on my own but became confused
because of the descrepancy between what he described and what is
available via the eclipse wtp downloads. i tried everything from 1.0m1
to the latest stable integration build, and i couldn't get a "right
click -> web services -> create web service" on a java file.
I did get the message that wtp is a vast staggered deliverable, but it
wasn't clear to me if the "create web service" functionality was
supposed to be included in the latest round of functionality or to be
delivered in a subsequent deliverable.
can someone help me to understand.
thanks,
tony.

cool, thanks for the reply.
can i get my hands on the initial ibm contribution somewhere
so i can take advantage of that in the meantime?
by the way, i'm completely psyched with the project,
and hats off to the awesome "code elves" that are working this effort.
i've been using wsad (now rational something or other) at work for
the past couple of years, but about a year ago i started picking
up eclipse for open source work on the side and i shortly realized
how much you get with wsad that you don't with eclipse. i did eventually
find sysdeo, lomboz and xmlbuddy, which are excellent in their own
right, but it's even way cooler that there is a coordinated effort to
bring a unified set of tools to the eclipse platform with wtp.
it's the best christmas present ever, thank you santa ;)

ok, never mind the generic eclipse questions, i realize this isn't the
forum for that.
if anyone can provide any useful artifacts for building wtp web services
elements from source that would be greatly appreciated, for example:
(a) a broader dot-psf file which includes web services elements and
their dependencies
(b) an ant script which builds the source into a format suitable for
deploying to the plugins directory
as an aside, i would like to get a flavor for the functionality of the
original ibm contribution, so if anyone has a copy of it and wouldn't
mind firing it off to me in an e-mail that would be cool.
thanks,
tony.
