Read complex types from wsdl in java

Question

Hi,

I'm havving a bit of a trouble finding some way to read the complex types from a wsdl in my Java app. I'm using WSDL4J but it doesn't seem to help me get the complex types. Is there a better lib for this?

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

I would just use NetBeans. Create a new Web Service Client, give it the WSDL and you're off and running.

Answer 2

Java 6 includes JAX-WS RI (the JAX-WS Reference Implementation). Just use wsimport to generate the Java artifacts from the WSDL:

wsimport -d generated http://example.org/stock?wsdl

And create a web service client using them (see this example).
