Generating HTML documentation from WSDL [closed]

What are your approaches to generating some sort of human-readable documentation from WSDLs? In the past I've used WSDL viewer (by Tomi Vanek) and I'm happy with the results, but I'm interested in any possible alternatives.

I've also heard of x3sp, but I haven't tried it.

How do I document a WSDL file?

To generate documentation for a WSDL document, select WSDL Documentation from the Tools > Generate Documentation menu or from the Generate Documentation submenu in the contextual menu of the Project view. You can also open the tool by using the Generate Documentation toolbar button.

I tried several alternatives

  • TechWriter for Web Services: Really powerful, but HTML output was (see comments) multi-file. Also, comments indicate it is retired, but that is no longer the case.
  • <oXygen/> XML Editor: It doesn't process embedded schema.
  • Altova XML Spy: It doesn't process anonymous types.

and ended up tweaking WSDL viewer to my needs.

Yes, there is a new one: wsdl2html. It focuses on request/response and removes info that people don't care.
