Re: Web Service



Maybe I'm not understanding SOAP and WDSL correctly. My initial
understanding is that a SOAP statement needs a WDSL file that defines
among other things protocols and parameters. Is that not true?
When using the wizards/toolkits what happens is the wizard reads the WSDL (not WDSL) file to get information about your web service, including how to call it (the protocol to use) and what parameters to pass it. It needs that information in order to generate the SOAP messages.
So yes, you'd create the WSDL document first, because that'd be needed to generate the SOAP messages.
But if you're doing it manually, you could do it either way, since it's you doing the work :)
