  •        Open Eclipse. Go to Window -> Preference and you will get the following screen


  • Click on “Web Services -> Axis2 Preferences”
  • Browse the directory to the location, where we have extracted The “axis2-1.4”

  • Create a new “Dynamic Web Project
  • Make sure Server is configured Properly. -> Finish

  • Create a new Java class inside the same Package.






Create class “Calculate” inside the package, with following methods.

public class Calculate {
    public int sum(int i, int j) {

         return (i + j);

  }public int subtract(int i, int j) {

         return (i – j);

   }public int multiply(int i, int j) {
         return (i * j);
   }

public int divide(int i, int j) {

    return (i / j);
 }
}
  • When services are deployed to Axis, the wsdd file is used during the deployment and its contents end up within server-config.wsdd in /usr/local/OMII/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/webapps/axis/WEB-INF.
  • Since we dont have such file, we have to create a “server-config.wsdd”
  • Right Click on “WEB-INF” and select “New -> File”. Name it as “server-config.wsdd”.
  • Make sure you have the following jar files inside the library of created Project.
  1. activation.jar
  2. commons-discovery.jar
  3. jaxrpc.jar
  4. mail.jar
  5. saaj.jar
  • These jar files are required for successful completeion of creation of WSDL service. So if you dont have kindly download it inside the lib folder of axis2-1.4.
  • So now we to copy paste all the library from lib folder inside the lib of project
  • From : C:\Users\jars\Axis2\axis2-1.4\lib
  • To : WEB-INF\lib
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


  • Right Click the Java Class we created “Calculate.java”.
  • New -> WebService -> Next
  • Click on Web Service runtime : Apache Axis
  • Select Apache Axis 2 and click OK.  


  • Select Next and then click “Start Server.”
  • Click “Next”->Finish.
  • Right click on Project. Select Run As -> Run on Server
  • If you get the following error “HTTP Status 404 – /AndroidBackend/”……its fine. dont worry about it.
  • Change the url to “http://localhost:8080/AndroidBackend/axis2-web/index.jsp”.
  • Click on Services.
    • If you get the above screen, we have sucessfully created a wsdl file. The only step Remaining is to click on “Calculate”.
    • If it points to “http://localhost:8080/AndroidBackend/services/Calculate?wsdl” with a wsdl file in your web browser, We have successfully created a wsdl file for our android app.

Create new Android Project : in Main Activity package com.AlarmManager; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View; import com.actionbarsherlock.app.ActionBar; import com.actionbarsherlock.app.ActionBar.Tab; import com.actionbarsherlock.app.SherlockFragmentActivity; public class AlarmManagerActivity extends SherlockFragmentActivity { public static String ACTIVE_TAB = "activeTab"; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { setTheme(R.style.Theme_Sherlock_Light_DarkActionBar); super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); // setContentView(R.lay

Android Material Design (with Design support Library) - 4

Introducing  Design Support Library  , to use Material design component in older version API - android 2.1 and above.  You’ll find a navigation drawer view, floating labels for editing text, a floating action button, snackbar, tabs, and a motion and scroll framework to tie them together. I have used my previous example, so its easy for demonstrate.  Note: Update your Android SDK support  repositories, support library if not updated i  used compileSdkVersion 'android-MNC' for Android M but you can change it to build in older API add  dependencies in build.gradle file compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.0' start with  navigation drawer , its very easy to use lets, design for drawer <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://
