How to reference a local WSDL file in a JAX-RPC client.
Greetings,
I am writing a simple service client using Java WSDP 2.0.
I already created a Web Service that is a STAND-ALONE executable. It is listening on a port.I created this service with gSoap (C++). I HAVE created and successfully tested a gSOAP client for this (of course).
However, now I am creating a Java client, and I ran Java WSDP's wscompile on the following WSDL,file, which by the way was automatically generated by gSOAP:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Anyway, as you might observe it seems the WSDL is using the proper encoding, but when I run the client, I get the following message:
java.rmi.RemoteException: Runtime exception; nested exception is:

With all of that said, in trying to debug the problem, I went to the stub files that WSCompile created. Inside of my service implementation class file (aply named Service_impl) it defines the service Name and Service QName as:
private static final QName serviceName = new QName("http://127.0.0.1:18081/Service.wsdl", "Service");
private static final QName ns1_Service_QNAME = new QName("http://127.0.0.1:18081/Service.wsdl", "Service")
Now when I enter the string " http://127.0.0.1:18081/Service.wsdl" in Internet Explorer, the WSDL file does NOT appear which I would not expect to (I think) but left me with the question of how then would the software know how to interpret a WSDL file it could not find. The flip side is that maybe it does not need to. In any event, if that is a problem I don't know how to reference a local wsdl file.
Lastly, when the Java Client runs, I can see that THE WEB SERVICE IS RESPONDING TO THE RIGHT REQUEST (I have 3 requests on the server). It just does not get interpreted right back at the client and thus the error message above.
So I am sort of leaning towards the idea that I need to tell the Stub code where this WSDL file is on disk so it can parse it and interpret it properly but I am not sure where I should do this nor the proper syntax.
Or maybe I am all confused and am totally thinking about this wrong (would not be the first time). In any event, any insight/help would be greatly appreciated.
Remember, my Web Service is a standalone application waiting on a port, port 18081 to be exact. My C++ client, written using the same toolkit as the web service works just fine. Unfortunately, the Java client does not.
Thanks Again,
Richard
