WSTK 2.2 and VB
I used wstk from alphaworks to generate WSDL so that I can use VB to talk to
my java apps. It generates *impl.wsdl and *interface.wsdl. When calling for
a service from VB which one should I refer to?
e.g.
Dim cli as SoapClient
set cli = new SoapClient
cli.mssoapinit "http://localhost:8080/wsdl/InvoiceService-impl.wsdl"
OR
cli.mssoapinit "http://localhost:8080/wsdl/InvoiceService-interface.wsdl"
$sInvoice = cli.getInvoice("1-141644")
P.S. Yuk! I know but this is what I have to work with.
Stephen.

I agree with Graham on this point (that's also the style recommended
by the WSDL spec) also note that the current MS TK2 beta doesn't
support the WSDL import element, so you're going to have to manually
combine the two WSDL files into a single one.

i still don't understand why IBM puts the binding
part into the interface. the binding part contains
stuff that is specific to SOAP, which seems like
it belongs in the implementation portion to me.
would anyone like to add their own comments to this?
i think it should be:
interface file = message + operations
implementation file = binding + port + service
cheers,
graham

IBM separates Web Service's description in 2 parts : a wsdl file describing
the abstract view of the service (interface : message, operation, porttype,
binding) and a wsdl file for the implementation part (impl : port, service).
I don't know if it's from the standard. I think you should use the impl one
(it contains the details about how to call the service : url, etc).
But if it doesn't work, try to paste the content of the <service> tag of the
impl file at the end of the interface one (the whole definition in a single
file).

That WORKED! Last night I was copying and pasting the contents into the
interface rather than the *impl file. Now VB is talkin'. :) I should have
known by looking at the namespace...
Thanks,
