Hi, Does anyone know why the WSDL used to feed Axis' WSDL2Java' differs from the WSDL returned by the final online web-service?
I begin with a piece like - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <wsdl:definitions targetNamespace="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:impl="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:intf="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:apachesoap="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap"; xmlns:wsdlsoap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"; xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/";> <!--WSDL created by Apache Axis version: 1.2alpha Built on Dec 01, 2003 (04:33:24 EST)--> <wsdl:types> <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; targetNamespace="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor"> <import namespace="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/> <complexType name="CertificateValidationResult"> <sequence> <element name="UID" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/> <element name="certificateValid" type="xsd:boolean"/> <element name="description" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/> </sequence> </complexType> <complexType name="CertificateValidationException"> <sequence> <element name="message" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/> </sequence> </complexType> </schema> </wsdl:types> ... - but the online service returns - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <wsdl:definitions targetNamespace="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:apachesoap="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap"; xmlns:impl="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:intf="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xmlns:tns1="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding"; xmlns:tns2="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema"; xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"; xmlns:wsdlsoap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <!--WSDL created by Apache Axis version: 1.2alpha Built on Dec 01, 2003 (04:33:24 EST)--> <wsdl:types> <schema targetNamespace="urn:CertificateValidator.FrontDoor" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <import namespace="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/> <complexType name="CertificateValidationResult"> <sequence> <element name="UID" nillable="true" type="tns1:string"/> <element name="certificateValid" type="xsd:boolean"/> <element name="description" nillable="true" type="tns1:string"/> </sequence> </complexType> <complexType name="CertificateValidationException"> <sequence> <element name="message" nillable="true" type="tns1:string"/> </sequence> </complexType> </schema> </wsdl:types> ... As you can tell, e.g. the "UID" element is no longer of type "xsd:string" - for some real odd reason. This is bad, because .NET's 'WSDL' can handle the first, not the second - and I need to call the service from .NET. The service implemented matches the second, not the first. I get the first piece of WSDL by running 'Java2WSDL'. This first piece is supposed to be fixed. This WSDL is fed into 'WSDL2Java' - which I compile and deploy - and from which I get a final service - and an online query to the service gives the second piece of WSDL. I have another - "simpler" - service with which there are no problems. It does not have any 'string' in it. I do this with Axis 1.2Alpha and VS .NET 2003/1.1. I have build my web-services into my own WAR-file, which I run on a TC 5.0.27. Anyone have any clues, which can help me to solve this? Regards, Morten Sabroe Mortensen
