How do I call the FindProducts call using JAX-WS ?

This sample uses wsimport tool that ships with JAX-WS to generate Java code stubs and demonstrates how to make Shopping API calls.


Detailed Description

Software Requirements:

Generate Java code stub using wsimport tool:

Once you have set up JAW-WS on your machine, go to the {JAX-WS install-dir}/bin directory where you will find the wsimport tool. Open command prompt, change the directory to {JAX-WS install-dir}/bin and enter the following command:

wsimport -extension http://developer.ebay.com/webservices/latest/ShoppingService.wsdl

This will generate the required Java classes from the WSDL

Sample code for FindProducts call:

In the below code, replace "YOUR APP ID" with your actual AppID generated through the developer account.
