You have to keep a reference on the Endpoint object and call stop() method on it:

Endpoint ep = Endpoint.create(new MelodyWS());
ep.publish("http://localhost:8081/Melody/MelodyService");
..
ep.stop();

I tried your solution but I am getting an error: "Address already in use: bind". I believe it's because of the "publish()" method. Any tips how to get around that? – Dallis

@Dallis Stopping of the service does not occur immediately. When ep.stop() finishes, the port that you were previously bound to (in this example, 8081) should be free. You can check that with the telnet command (e.g. telnet localhost 8081). Only after the port is free, you can republish the service. – Dna
