Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

I have created a web service using RAD 6. The web service client works fine in RAD but when I try to run it stand alone using java web start it seems to need several Websphere specific JAR files?

I have added all of these:
<jar href="JARs/ATCApp.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/log4j-1.2.8.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/rowset.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/db2java.zip"/>
<jar href="JARs/SQLWebServiceClient.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/webserviceutils.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/objectpoolimpl.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/j2ee.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/channel.tcp.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/channel.http.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/xml.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/webservices.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/bootstrap.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/ras.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/wsexception.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/emf.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/wsdl4j.jar"/>
<jar href="JARs/ffdc.jar"/>

And I finally ran into a No Class Def error, but the error is not referring to any specific class.

Why is wsexception.jar needed? Is that not a websphere specific jar file?

What is your experience with this?

Thanks,
