Thanks you so much for the hint !
But if you are using a web service toolkit that implements WSDL standard - the WSDL get generated should be valid WSDL (Axis for example uses ?wsdl at the end of the URL)
Are you meaning the WSDLs listed at xmethods.net are hand coded by service provider instead of generated by web services tool kits?
-OR- any other things makes the WSDL an invalid WSDL?
Thanks again

xmethods doesn't provide a toolkit -- it just provides a place for people to post their services -- it's up to the folks that post their service to make sure that they are valid. Many are not.
I f the WSDL isn't valid, wsdl2java is likely to barf on it.

Assuming you pick one that works properly, you s hould be able to take the WSDL and generate a stub to talk to it. Most other SOAP toolkits work the same way, although some use a call interface instead of a stub interface.

Is that all for using web services?-- if using PERL / .NET as web service client, does it also generate stub / skeleton just like Axis (java) does?thanks
