WSIFServiceFactory class

To find a service from a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) document at a web address, or from a code-generated code base, we can use the WSIFServiceFactory class.

When we create a WSIFService interface from a WSIFServiceFactory class, we can specify a ClassLoader object to use in locating the WSDL file. Specify this object when the WSDL file is in a JAR file. In such a case, specify the location of the WSDL file relative to the root of the JAR file, and use forward slashes (/) with the preceding slash removed.

For example:

com/myCompany/wsdl/MyWSDLFile.wsdl

rather than

/com/myCompany/wsdl/MyWSDLFile.wsdl

The WSIFServiceFactory class returns null if no service is found with that identifier.

Apache no longer supports WSIF.
