26.1. Sample WSDL Contract

Example 26.1, “HelloWorld WSDL Contract” shows the HelloWorld WSDL contract. This contract defines a single interface, Greeter, in the wsdl:portType element. The contract also defines the endpoint which will implement the service in the wsdl:port element.

The Greeter interface defined in Example 26.1, “HelloWorld WSDL Contract” defines the following operations:

sayHi — Has a single output parameter, of xsd:string.

greetMe — Has an input parameter, of xsd:string, and an output parameter, of xsd:string.

greetMeOneWay — Has a single input parameter, of xsd:string. Because this operation has no output parameters, it is optimized to be a oneway invocation (that is, the consumer does not wait for a response from the server).

pingMe — Has no input parameters and no output parameters, but it can raise a fault exception.
