Hello,
I have a universal Web Service that starts with 3 offered Services.
I am using the Buttom Up way to generate the Web Service Server from my
Java Class. The corresponding Client is generated from the WSDL file.
Over time there will be some more offered Services. Lets say there are 5
offered Services now. So the WSDL also changed over time. And that leads
me to my actual problem:
The new Server with my 5 Services is not downward compatible. If I want
to connect with my "old" (3 Services) client the following Exception
occurs:
Caused by: javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: The Endpoint validation
failed to validate due to the following errors: :: Invalid Endpoint
Interface :: :: The operation names in the WSDL portType do not match
the method names in the SEI or Web service implementation class.
Updating all the clients is not always an option. Is there any way
despite changes to the server to remain downward compatible with the
clients?
Greetings,
Mirco
