Web Service Inspection

[Vinu Murugesan <qu...@yahoo.com>]

Hello all,

Given a WSDL file, is it possible to get the operation
names, as well as their In and Out parameters of the
Web service using Axis?

If you want to see an example of this functionality,
see the WSDL Analyzer of a Web service at XMethods.com

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Vinu.

You probably want to use JWSDL (http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=110) to
inspect the WSDL file. There's a link to IBM's open source implementation
(WSDL4J) from the Axis site.

Being an xml file, I suppose you can parse it :o))) It should not be too hard 
because you might even have a DTD to use for validation and the structure is 
not so complex (at least for what you need). 

But this should be your last solution... 

Hope it (somehow) helps
