Axis2 - schema and WSDL
We are limited to use a pre-defined schema to create a web service. I
have the schema as well as an sample XML document. What should I do next
to create a web service in Axis2? I've read through all the sample codes
but I couldn't find one that directs me from this path of development.
Do I need to manually create a WSDL from this schema then use the
wsdl2java tool to generate a stub?
Thanks.

Ooops... Apologies for the acronyms..
DII - Dynamic Invocation Interface... In simpler words it's the
Service Client and the OperationClient...

Hi all!
Sorry for the question but i have to map more than one Namespace to a

Also have a look at the databinding sample which comes with Axis2..

Re: Axis2 - schema and WSDL
Posted by Ajith Ranabahu <aj...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
XMLBeans can compile the schema into a set of classes that maps a
schema to a class and also includes the code to convert a instance XML
to an object instance (vice versa). This is what we call databinding
However when you want to build a service it needs the plumbing code to
get the XML message from the SOAP framework and do all the things that
is specific to your framework. This code cannot be generated just by
looking at the schema!. That is why you need the WSDL. This way of
writing services is known as the 'contract first' and since you have
the schema I think contract first way is the right way for you

RE: Axis2 - schema and WSDL
Posted by Danny Lin <Li...@doc.state.sc.us>.
Thank you, Ajith, for responding. I am very new to Web Services and
Axis2. I was doing some reading yesterday and found out that XMLBeans
has utility to convert XSD to Java. If I generate Java code with
XMLBeans, will I be able to produce correct web service message that's
in compliance with the schema I give? Or, I still need to have WSDL in
order to make it to work?
Thanks again.
Danny

Hi,
Yes - right now the tools available in Axis2 does not let you directly
convert a schema into a web service so you will have to make a WSDL
document that uses that schema. However making a doc/lit WSDL using your
schema is quite simple and straight forward. I have included a simple
format you can follow
<definitions targetNamespace="xx' xmlns:tns="xx">
<!-- don't forget the other namespaces in the parent !! -->
<types>
<schema>
<!-- import your schema here -->
</schema>
</types>
<!-- define two messages - one for input and one for output
the names really does not matter since they are only used
for reference -->
<message name="input">
<part element="yourInputMessageElement" name="part1"/>
</message>
<message name="output">
<part element="yourInputMessageElement" name="part1"/>
</message>
<portType name="YourPorttypeName">
<operation name="yourOperationName">
<input message="tns:input" name="in"/>
<output message="tns:output" name="out"/>
</operation>
</portType>
<binding name="yourBinding"
type="tns:YourPorttypeName">
<soap:binding style="document"
transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"/>
<operation name="yourOperationName">
<soap:operation soapAction="http://soapinterop.org/"
style="document"/>
<input name="in">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</input>
<output name="out">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</output>
</operation>
</binding>
<service name="yourServiceName">
<port binding="tns:yourBinding"
name="yourPort">
<soap:address
location="http://some-dummy-address"/>
</port>
</service>
</definitions>
Note that the names of the portTypes bindings etc can be anything but
the generated classes do reflect them. Say the generated java classs
will contain the methods with the operation names.

I think the binding framerk allows generating Web service implementation
classes from the schema, then you are done.
