Can a POJO web service application running in a spring application without Spring framework

Current Spring application would like to integrate with existing POJOweb service(javax.jws.WebService) application. WSDL and everything are well packed in a jar file as a dependency. There are two questions:

  1. can this spring application calling the API from the jar file to send/receive web service message back and forth without Spring-WS involved?

  2. If not, then what is the minimal cost to make the integration?

Yes. You said yourself that the jar has the WSDL packed in it. Just because you are using spring in your service doesn't mean that any calling service must also depend on spring. That would be silly.

Use the WSDL contract to generate your calls in your spring service. As far as your service calling another POJO service is concerned, it shouldn't matter what framework the other service uses.
