Apache CXF (http://incubator.apache.org/cxf/) distribution comes with a large set of examples.
However, I did not find one to access a publicly available web service. I have created one:
http://nrsenthil.googlepages.com/wsdl_second.zip

This demo accesses a publicly available wsdl:

http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/tempconvert.asmx?WSDL

To run the wsdl_second demo:

1. Extract the zip file so "wsdl_second" is parallel to the "wsdl_first" that comes with the distribution.

2. connect the PC to the internet

3. Assuming the distribution is extracted to:

C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator

Execute the command "ant client" at:

C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\samples\wsdl_second

You should see a response from the web service, Celcius value for the Farenheit value specified in the file Client.java.

I followed the following steps to run wsdl_first on my Windows XP Professional:

1. Download apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator.zip from http://incubator.apache.org/cxf/download.html
   


2. I used JDK6.
   


3. I used Ant 1.6.5.
   


4. Unzip apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator.zip (say C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\ )
   Set all the Windows environment variables as described in:C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\samples\README
   


5. Create a new directory called endorsed like:
   
   C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\jre\lib\endorsed
   


6. Follow the jdk6 special instruction (http://incubator.apache.org/cxf/apache-cxf-205-incubating-release-notes.html) (If using a Java 6 kit, you may need to copy the jaxb*.jar, saaj*.jar, jaxws*.jar jars from the C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\lib dir to your newly created C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\jre\lib\endorsed directory)
   


7. Open a new cmd window and cd to:
   C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\samples\java_first_pojoand issue
   
   “ant server”
   
   Open another new cmd window and cd to:
   C:\apache\apache-cxf-2.0.5-incubator\samples\java_first_pojoand issue
   
   “ant client”
   
   The client window should now display a greeting message.
