wsdl interview questions
Top wsdl frequently asked interview questions
I have an old WSDL file and I want to create a server based on this WSDL file.
The WSDL is generated from a ASMX (I suppose but I am not sure).
How can I achieve this ?
original question where the OP thought he needed to create a client based on the WSDL.

My application needs to talk to a web service that hasn't got an online WSDL definition. The developers however supplied me with a WSDL file.
With a public WSDL Visual Studio can generate this code for me using the Service Reference wizard. But it doesn't seem to work without a public WSDL.
How do I generate the code for talking to this web service using this WSDL file?

I want to develop JavaScript on my Windows machine. Do you know a browser where I can turn off Same Origin Policy so I can develop locally? Firefox would be optimal.
Or if you know a proxy I could use for a SOAP/WSDL site it would be great too.
I am trying to work with the JavaSCript SOAP Client.

Is it possible to see if a web service uses SOAP 1.1 or 1.2, based on the information in the WSDL?

When I add a web service by using "add service reference" in the console app, the app.config does not generate the configuration. How do I generate this app.config with a specific wsdl? Thanks!

In through php_info() where the wsdl cache is held (/tmp), but I don't necessarily know if it is safe to delete all files starting with wsdl.
Yes, I should be able to just delete everything from /tmp, but I don't know what else this could effect if I delete any all wsdl files.

I need to consume a Web Service. They sent me the WSDL file.
What should I do to add it to my website and start using it as the proxy.
( If I put it on a Virtual Directory it can be discovered, but does it grant me the connection with the real web service?)

I have been reading about REST and SOAP, and understand why implementing REST can be beneficial over using a SOAP protocol. However, I still don't understand why there isn't the "WSDL" equivalent in the REST world. I have seen posts saying there is "no need" for the WSDL or that it would be redundant In the REST world, but I don't understand why. Isn't it always useful to programmatically bind to a definition and create proxy classes instead of manually coding? I don't mean to get into a philosophical debate, just looking for the reason there is no WSDL in REST, or why it is not needed. Thanks.

We have an employee whose last name is Null. Our employee lookup application is killed when that last name is used as the search term (which happens to be quite often now). The error received (thanks Fiddler!) is:
<soapenv:Fault>
<faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode>
<faultstring>coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: [coldfusion.runtime.MissingArgumentException : The SEARCHSTRING parameter to the getFacultyNames function is required but was not passed in.]</faultstring>
Cute, huh?
The parameter type is string.
I am using:
- WSDL (SOAP).
- Flex 3.5
- ActionScript 3
- ColdFusion 8
Note that the error DOES NOT occur when calling the webservice as an object from a ColdFusion page.

I'm attempting to compile Java 1.4 code that was created by IBM's WSDL2Java on Java5 without recreating the stubs and saw this error in Eclipse. I'm under the assumption that the stubs created should just compile as long as the runtime jars are available (they are).
Access restriction: The type QName is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_16\jre\lib\rt.jar
The full classname is javax.xml.namespace.QName
What exactly is going on here?
Is this a case where I am trying to refactor a pig from sausage? Am I better off recreating the stubs?

I am having a lot of trouble finding good information on how to call a standard SOAP/WSDL web service with Android. All I've been able to find are either very convoluted documents and references to "kSoap2" and then some bit about parsing it all manually with SAX. OK, that's fine, but it's 2008, so I figured there should be some good library for calling standard web services.
The web service is just basically one created in NetBeans. I would like to have IDE support for generating the plumbing classes. I just need the easiest/most-elegant way to contact a WSDL based web service from an Android-based phone.

I'm planning to develop an app for the iPhone and that app would have to access a couple of SOAP services. While doing some basic checking in the iPhone SDK I was not able to find any support for accessing SOAP services, a bit of Googling lead to the conclusion that there is no support for SOAP in the iPhone SDK.
So if I do want to build that app I'll need to come up with a approach to access SOAP services from the iPhone. What would be the best approach? Any best practices? Did someone already write a library using the functionality that is present in the iPhone SDK to access SOAP services?
(Since the service I need to access is exposed by another party and they only expose it as SOAP, it's unfortunately not an option to switch to another type of interface (e.g. REST based API).
