title: Spring CXF Client Test
body: <p>I am working on sending a request to a web service and parsing the response.  I have to use Spring 3 and Apache CXF. Using Maven's wsdl2java, I was able to generate request and response objects from the wsdl. These classes have been generated now and I see basically what appear to be annotated POJO's. I am unclear what the next step is to actually send the request to the web services. All I see is an ObjectFactory to create the initial web service.</p>
  
  <p>What is the next step? Do I need to create a spring bean configuration file like this?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;jaxws:client id="XXXX"
                serviceClass="XXXX"
                address="http://localhost:8080/xxxx /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any assistance would be greatly appreciates as I am not sure how to send the actual request to the web or what my next step would be. Thanks</p>
