[kepler-dev] Actor in Java using new Classes

[Matt Jones]

The best way is to create a module for your actor, which then allows you to
include 3rd party jar files in lib/jar, and when you install the module in
Kepler, it will have access to the jars you need.

See the Kepler build documentation on how to create new modules.  Once they
are built and published, the modules will be listed in the Kepler Module
Manager and can be installed and run on top of Kepler.

There are already existing web service actors that use the AXIS libraries,
so those jars exist and you might look into modifying or depending on the
existing web service actor modules -- I forget where they are located, but
Dan Crawl can probably provide more specific guidance.
