JAX-WS client without a WSDL document file

Question

I am consuming a webservice soa, with netbeans (jax-ws) i use netbeans auto generate client, and all run fine, but i see that the wsdl is always downloading while the client is running.

In production i don't want expose the wsdl, and i am trying to modify the client for don't require wsdl, all my intends are wrong, i find this:

WebService_Service svc = new WebService_Service(
  null,
  new QName("http://www.example.com/ws", "WebService"));
WebService port = svc.getPort(WebService.class);
BindingProvider bindingProvider = (BindingProvider) port;
bindingProvider.getRequestContext()
  .put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,
    "http://www.example.com/real_endpoint_url_goes_here");

but when the first line is executed i found this exception:

Any idea to ignore wsdl?

Answer 1

Finally i use the CXF libraries and i achieve use the Paul Vargas answer:

Without a WSDL document file

This solution requires the client generated.

QName qname = new QName("http://thenamespace", "FooService");
FooService service = new FooService(null, qname); // null for ignore WSDL
Foo port = service.getFooPort();
BindingProvider bindingProvider = (BindingProvider) port;
bindingProvider.getRequestContext()
    .put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,
    "http://foo.com/soap/fooBean");

// Use the service
String result = port.doSomething(param);

Using standard jaw-ws, this solution don't work, CXF is necessary.

Answer 2

There are several ways, of which I will tell you two:

1. Use a WSDL document file locally

   Save a copy of the WSDL document file and the schemma files to your project.

   ClassLoader classloader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
   URL wsdlLocation = classloader.getResource("MyHelloService.wsdl");
   QName serviceName= new QName("http://test.com/", "MyHelloService");
   
   MyHelloService service = new MyHelloService(wsdlLocation, serviceName);
   service.sayHello("Test");
   

   You may combine the WSDL document file with the schema files.

2. Without a WSDL document file

   This solution requires the client generated.

   QName qname = new QName("http://thenamespace", "FooService");
   FooService service = new FooService(null, qname); // null for ignore WSDL
   Foo port = service.getFooPort();
   BindingProvider bindingProvider = (BindingProvider) port;
   bindingProvider.getRequestContext()
       .put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,
       "http://foo.com/soap/fooBean");
   
   // Use the service
   String result = port.doSomething(param);
