Answer 1

There are many ways available to create web service from wsdl. If you want to create it manually then you follow these steps

The most easiest way is to use some tools that can generate the webservice for you as Netbeans has a wizard which can create the webservice from wsdl. All methods and neccessary files generates automatically. see Developing Webservices from wsdl using Netbeans

After creating webservice you can host it from your local machine. Netbeans also has the option to run and deploy the webservice.
