Publish WSDL compression files settings

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

This administrative console panel applies for Java API for XML-Based Web Services (JAX-WS) and Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) Web services.

The publish WSDL panel generates a compression file that contains WSDL files for all modules in an application that contains 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.

To view this administrative console page, click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > application_name > Publish WSDL files.

When you click OK, a panel showing one or several compression file names displays. Each compression file contains a WSDL file that represents the Web services-enabled modules in the application. When you select a compression file to publish, a dialogue displays from which you can choose where to create the compression file. Within the published compression 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

Specifies the application_name_WSDLFiles.zip file containing the WSDL that describes Web services that are accessible by standard SOAP-based ports.

application_name_ExtendedWSDLFiles.zip

Specifies the 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 compression file name is not displayed. Do not use this compression file if you want to produce a WSDL file compliant to standards.
