Hi ,
i have created WSDL file from my message category.Created the Client in my toolkit also.
But the real aim is to distribute into the production environment.
I know using this WSDL no one can create the stubs.
How can i use this WSDL to create the stub for the outside world?
How can i deploy my WS in webserver?
What i need to do for viewing this WSDL by giving the URL in web browsers as normal deployed WSDLs?
or only Broker to broker Webservice invocation is possible by "Publishing a message flow as a Web Service" ?
This concept is very confusing.
Pls post ur suggestions..
regards,
tony |

You can create a message flow to PROVIDE a webservice, or to CONSUME a webservice.
You create a message flow to PROVIDE a webservice by starting the flow off with an HTTPInput node.
You create a message flow to CONSUME a webservice by including an HTTPRequest node.
You can use the SOAP Extract Support Pack and version 6.0.2.1 of the WMBT (you need *both*) to allow you to *easily* do these things from a WSDL.
With that combination of software, you can create a new and empty message flow, and drag and drop a WSDL onto the flow area. You will then get a Wizard that will help you build a flow.
Then to DEPLOY this...
You DEPLOY it like any other Message Broker Solution. By putting it in a BAR file and then deploying that to an Execution Group.
Then if you have created a flow to PROVIDE a webservice, it will be available through the HTTP Listener port of the Broker, at the URL that is configured on the HTTPInput Node.
Stop thinking about stubs and clients. Start thinking about Message Broker.
There is not, however, an easy way to make the WSDL available by HTTP. Not in Broker. It's easy to do otherwise, though, with any other web server.

Jeff,
it means that i cant give my WSDL(generated from mesaage categories) to a third person(MB unaware) to create WS clients?
So what is the real meaning of Publishing the Flow as Webservice?
Ple give me a live scenario of this Concept.

Tony |

You can give your WSDL to a third person, MB unaware, to create WS clients.
Just not by deploying the WSDL to Broker in any way. Unless you write a flow who's job it is to produce WSDLs from requests.
Broker is not a general purpose HTTP Server or other kind of file server.
A WSDL is just an XML file. That is... it's just a file. You can do anything you want to share it with other people.

Hi All
my problem got solved ..I have used IE01 support pac to create the clients from the third party machine (.NET or Java )..
Only thing is the SOAP Address created inside WSDL from message sets should be changed to 8080 port before creating the client ie
from http://localhost:7080/IE01/any to http://localhost:8080/IE01/any
because IE01.war deployed ijn Tomcat server.
Thanks Jeff for your valuable inputs ..Thanks to every one..
regards,
Tony |

Jeff,
Can you please throw some light on the alternative to get WSDL using IE. You said we can create a flow to display wsdl. Can you put some more details on it.
Thanks, |

Woud you like view WSDL when you :
http://server1/services?wsdl
Create a Flow:
HTTPInput--->JavaCompute--->HttpReply
In Java Compute you review HTTPInputHeader.X-Query-String and search for ?, so you read service.wsdl from server file and display.
