Publish WSDL compressed files settings

Use this page to publish Web Services Description Language (WSDL) files.

This administrative console page applies for JAX-WS and JAX-RPC web services.

The publish WSDL panel generates a compressed file containing WSDL files for all modules in an application containing a JAX-WS or JAX-RPC web service. Read about providing the HTTP endpoint URL information to learn how the URL information affects the content of the published WSDL.

From the admin console, click...

        Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > application_name > Publish WSDL files.

When we click OK, a panel showing one or several compressed file names displays. Each compressed file contains a WSDL file that represents the web services-enabled modules in the application. When we select a compressed file to publish, a dialogue displays from which we can choose where to create the compressed file. Within the published compressed files, the directory structure is application_name/module_name/[META-INF|WEB-INF]/wsdl/wsdl_file_name.

In a published WSDL file, the location attribute of a port's soap:address element contains the endpoint URL through which the web service is accessed. Using the Provide HTTP endpoint URL information and the Provide JMS and EJB endpoint URL information panels, configure the endpoint URLs to be used for the web services in each module.


application_name_WSDLFiles.zip

Application_name_WSDLFiles.zip file containing the WSDL that describes web services that are accessible by standard SOAP-based ports.


application_name_ExtendedWSDLFiles.zip

Application_name_ExtendedWSDLFiles.zip file containing the WSDL file that describes the web services available, including SOAP-based and non-SOAP based (for example, EJB) ports.

If there are no web services configured for direct EJB access, this compressed file name is not displayed. Do not use this compressed file to produce a WSDL file compliant to standards.
