This section describes how to:
Create a Web service from a WSDL file – this top-down approach (creating a Web service from the WSDL) allows you to create a Web service from an existing WSDL file.
Create a Web service from a Java file – this bottom-up approach (creating a Web service from a component) allows you to create a Web service from a Java file.
The Web service can be contained in various projects. See “Web service projects” for more information about projects.
Creating a Web service from a WSDL
From the Web Service container, select File | New | Other.
The New wizard displays. Select Sybase Web Services in the left pane, and Web Service in the right pane. Click Next. You can also create the Web service within a project by selecting Web Service Project. If you do not select a project at this time, you will be asked later to provide a project for the Web service.
The Create Web Service wizard displays. Follow the instructions to create a Web service from a WSDL file. Table 4-3 describes the wizard properties.
Complete the wizard instructions and click Finish to create the Web service. If you choose a Project for this Web service, you can view the project by selecting Window | Show View | Package Explorer. The Projects appear in the right pane. Expand the project and package to view the Web service. Along with a Web service, the wizard generates the other required files, including a .wsdd file.
You can right-click the .wsdd file and then select Deploy to deploy it as a Web service.
