The class path won't matter (at least not in the version of Axis I checked), as a FileInputStream is created with the path to the WSDL file. The path could be absolute or relative to your startup directory.
Taken from org.apache.axis.handlers.soap.SOAPService /** * Generate WSDL. If we have a specific file configured in the * ServiceDesc, just return that. Otherwise run through all the Handlers * (including the provider) and call generateWSDL() on them via our * parent's implementation. */ public void generateWSDL(MessageContext msgContext) throws AxisFault { if (serviceDescription == null || serviceDescription.getWSDLFile() == null) { super.generateWSDL(msgContext); return; } // Got a WSDL file in the service description, so try and read it try { Document doc = XMLUtils.newDocument( new FileInputStream(serviceDescription.getWSDLFile())); msgContext.setProperty("WSDL", doc); } catch (Exception e) { throw AxisFault.makeFault(e); } } ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(String name) would have been better. /Christer > -----Original Message----- > From: Ma, Yongjie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: den 24 januari 2003 18:22 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: How to Override '?WSDL' to generate WSDL file and How to > get web service list from Client? > > > I still did not get it. > > I played it using > CATALINA_HOME/webapps/axis/WEB-WEBINF/classes/samples/stock example, > and I put GetQuote.wsdl in same directory too. > > In the deploy.wsdd, I defined: > > <service name="urn:xmltoday-deployed-quotes" provider="java:RPC"> > <wsdlFile>full_path_to_wsdl_file</wsdlFile> > ..... > </service> > > After deployment, I can get custom wsdl file successfully from ?wsdl. > > But when I tried to use relative path, I always get exception > which said > "Fault - java.io.FileNotFoundException: GetQuote.wsdl (No > such file or directory) " > > In this case, deploy.wsdd looks like: > <service name="urn:xmltoday-deployed-quotes" provider="java:RPC"> > <wsdlFile>relative_path_to_wsdl_file</wsdlFile> > ..... > </service> > > So could you pls tell me what relatvie_path_to_wsdl_file I > should use???? > > Thanks > Jack >
