How to add xsd in WSDL

Question

My requirement is to create a webservice on WebSphear. I want to add my xsd file into WSDL. For that I've written my xsd file below -

<xsd:element name="getAppDate" ></xsd:element>
    <xsd:element name="getAppDateResponce"></xsd:element>

   <xsd:complexType name="getAppDate">
  <xsd:sequence>
  <xsd:element name="appdate" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"></xsd:element>
  <xsd:element name="uuName" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"></xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
 </xsd:complexType>

<xsd:complexType name="getAppDateResponce">
 <xsd:sequence>
  <xsd:element name="return" type="xsd:boolean" minOccurs="0"></xsd:element>
 </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
   </xsd:schema>

Now I've written one interface for JAX-WS below -

 public interface BookAppointment {

String getAppDate(String date,String uuname);
boolean getAppDateResponce(String date,String uuname);
       }

Next step: I'm executing Java2WSDL command to generate wsdl -

   java org.apache.axis.wsdl.Java2WSDL -o ..\appointmentbooking.wsdl -C C:\Users\px00395
   \IBM\rationalsdp\workspace\PeoplesoftWS\bin\servicecenter.xsd -l 
    http://localhost:9081/AxisServlet/services/appointmentbook  
    com.ubs.peoplesoft.BookAppointment

But I'm getting message : The has already been specified as, C:\\Users\\px00395\\IBM\\rati onalsdp\\workspace\\PeoplesoftWS\\bin\\servicecenter.xsd. It cannot be specified again as com.ubs.peoplesoft.BookAppointment. Please let me know what wrong I'm doing here and how can I add xsd into WSDL?

Answer 1

You may include your schema to wsdl, something like

<include schemaLocation="C:\Users\px00395
   \IBM\rationalsdp\workspace\PeoplesoftWS\bin\servicecenter.xsd" />

Or you may import schema, something like this:

<import namespace="mynamespace"
        schemaLocation="C:\Users\px00395
   \IBM\rationalsdp\workspace\PeoplesoftWS\bin\servicecenter.xsd" />

If you work in a team, you'd better use some local sever to host your schemas, rather than local file system. This way you won't have to synchronize and copy the .xsd to all develoeprs' computers.
