This WSDL is an example of how not to build an interoperable web service in .NET. This service returns a .NET DataSet data type -- hence the schema included in the response message. I know of no Java-based SOAP framework that can process one of these automatically. Your best option is too toss the service back at the folks that provided it and tell them to implement an interoperable service that does not return proprietary data types like the DataSet. Your only other option is to use the messaging API and process the response message (and its embedded schema) using DOM.
