wsdl error

[Vasim Patel]

Hi,

I am trying some examples of wsdl import, but getting error when trying to import multiple wsdls.

listing5wsdl
------------
<wsdl efinitions xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:listing5="urn:listing5"
targetNamespace="urn:listing5">

<wsdl:types>
<xsd:schema targetNamespace="urn:listing5">
<xsd:complexType name="Phone">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="areaCode" type="xsd:int"/>
<xsd:element name="exchange" type="xsd:int"/>
<xsd:element name="number" type="xsd:int"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>
</wsdl:types>

</wsdl efinitions>


listing4wsdl
------------
<wsdl efinitions xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:listing5="urn:listing5"
xmlns:listing4="urn:listing4"
targetNamespace="urn:listing4">

<wsdl:import namespace="urn:listing5" location="listing5wsdl"/>

<wsdl:types>
<xsd:schema targetNamespace="urn:listing4">
<xsd:complexType name="Address">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="street" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="city" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="state" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="phone" type="listing5 hone"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>
</wsdl:types>
</wsdl efinitions>

now when i try to import both the wsdls i get an error
"The WSDL is not semantically valid: Impossible to compile the schemas referenced by the WSDL"

<wsdl efinitions xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:listing4="urn:listing4"
xmlns:listing5="urn:listing5"
xmlns:listing6="urn:listing6"
targetNamespace="urn:listing6">

<wsdl:import namespace="urn:listing4" location="listing4wsdl"/>
<wsdl:import namespace="urn:listing5" location="listing5wsdl"/>

<wsdl:message name="GetAddressRequest">
<wsdl art name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
</wsdl:message>
<wsdl:message name="GetAddressResponse">
<wsdl art name="address" type="listing4:Address"/>
</wsdl:message>

<wsdl:message name="GetPhoneRequest">
<wsdl art name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
</wsdl:message>
<wsdl:message name="GetPhoneResponse">
<wsdl art name="phone" type="listing5 hone"/>
</wsdl:message>

</wsdl efinitions>


However, if I import just either one of the wsdls(either listing4wsdl or listing5wsdl) and just use their types, it works fine.

Is it alright to import multiple wsdls?

Yes, you can import multiple WSDLs - however my guess is that importing "listing5" causes the problem because "listing4" already imports "listing5". Try getting it to work by just importing "listing4".

I used XMLSpy and no error when I did "validate file".

Would "validating" the file actually perform the import to detect the "duplicate" import in the imported definition?

Anyway I didn't say it was illegal - it may be or it may not be - I don't know. Many tools have allowed illegal syntax before and croaked on perfectly legal syntax - we still have to work with them.

Thanks Peer, Wise,

As Peer suggested, i tried importing only urn:listing4, which in turn imports urn:listing5. It works fine now.

I am using BEA AquaLogic Service Bus console.

Thanks again
