Web services client bindings
The client bindings define the WSDL file name, preferred ports and other port information.
A Web service can specify the relative path within the module of a WSDL file containing the actual URL to be used for requests. The relative path only needs to be specified if the original WSDL file does not contain a URL or when a different URL is needed. For a service endpoint with multiple ports defined, a preferred mapping specifies the default port to use for a port type.
To specify the client bindings and the port mappings for the Web services in a module, go to...
