WSDL2Java Converting WSDL 2.0 Documents to Stub Classes

This section provides a tutorial example how to use WSDL2Java to generate a client stub class from a WSDL 2.0 document.

After failed loading WSDL 2.0 document with the ServiceClient class, I tried to use Axis2 1.4.1 WSDL2Java command line tool to generate a client stub class from my WSDL 2.0 document with the "-wv 2.0" option:

C:\herong>\local\axis2\bin\wsdl2java -o wsdl2 -d adb -s -wv 2.0 
   -uri Hello_WSDL_20_SOAP.wsdl
Using AXIS2_HOME:   \local\axis2
Using JAVA_HOME:    \local\jdk

C:\herong>dir Wsdl2\src\com\herongyang\www\service
            51,608 HelloServiceStub.java

Good. The stub class generation was successful. Here is Java program to test the stub class, .\wsdl2\src\Axis2StubHelloWsdl20.java:

/**
 * Axis2StubHelloWsdl20.java
 * Copyright (c) 2009 by Dr. Herong Yang, herongyang.com

 */
import java.io.PrintStream;
import com.herongyang.www.service.*;
import com.herongyang.www.service.HelloServiceStub.*;
import org.apache.axis2.transport.http.*;
class Axis2StubHelloWsdl20 {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      PrintStream out = System.out;
      try {

// Creating the stub
         HelloServiceStub stub = new HelloServiceStub();

// Fixing org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: Transport error: 
//    411 Error: Length Required
         stub._getServiceClient().getOptions()
            .setProperty(HTTPConstants.CHUNKED,false);

// Building the input parameter
         Hello request = new Hello();
         request.setHello("Hello from Stub client.");

// Calling the operation
         HelloResponse response = stub.Hello(request);

// Retrieving output parameter
         String output = response.getHelloResponse();
         out.println(output);

      } catch (Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace(); 
      }
   }
}

The execution result was good too:

C:\herong>cd wsdl2\src

C:\herong\wsdl2\src>javac Axis2StubHelloWsdl20.java

C:\herong\wsdl2\src>\local\jdk\bin\javac
   -Djava.ext.dirs=\local\axis2\lib\ Axis2StubHelloWsdl20.java

C:\herong\wsdl2\src>\local\jdk\bin\java
   -Djava.ext.dirs=\local\axis2\lib\ Axis2StubHelloWsdl20

      Hello from server - herongyang.com.
