Hi There,

Is there any way to create a WSDL from an XML file. I know that WSDL can be created from XSD schema. But I need from XML -> WSDL.

Please advise.

Regards,

Faiq

Hi Gobal,

Thanks for your response.

Can you explain How can I convert XML -> XSD format and then

XSD -> WSDL. I do use XML SPY for SOAP messages but I am not sure how to do the conversion.

Looking forward to your response.

if you are looking for straight forward conversion from XML- WSDL,there is no any tool available for that now..

However you can convert the XML to XSD, and convert it as WSDL..

Bottomline, you can need to make sure WSDL key elements such as <bindings>, <port> etc., are available. you can validate the generated WSDL using XML spy...

try to use Altova XML SPY.. You can do lot of SOAP testing using this tool

thanks-GS

I dont think thats possible. XML and WSDL represent completely different things. WSDL tells you where in the world(i mean internet world) the particular service exists and how you can invoke it. you use XML data to invoke it. XML will not have all the information which WSDL will have like port type, operations etc. So, Its not possible to generate WSDL from XML.
