How to invoke a Web Service using Java - java

I am new to Web services. I need to invoke a web service whose definition is in http://api.search.live.net/search.wsdl . I need to do a search of any keyword by using this web service.
I search on the net but could not find any solution. Any idea how to invoke the web service. I need to use Java.

Download axis2.
After extracting it, under the bin folder there is a tool called wsdl2java, this is used to generate stubs from the WSDL that can communicate with the webservice.
A sample usage would be:
WSDL2Java -uri http://api.search.live.net/search.wsdl -d xmlbeans -s
look here for more details on that tool.
Besides stubs it will also generate all the objects you need.
Here is a tutorial using axis2 and Eclipse IDE.

I use intelliJ to generate the java code I need from a WSDL. You can then use this code to do SOAP calls.
Give it the WSDL and it will generate the code, some info can be found here:
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/generating-wsdl-document-from-java-code.html

Take a look at http://ws.apache.org/ where you will find Axis2 which is probably what you are looking for.
Note that web-services are more generic term than WSDL and have evolved since WSDL was introduced to the point that most services today speak JSON and alike. See more here RESTEasy or Jersey?

Using java to generate WSDL with given parameters

I am looking for some tutorials or resources that may assist me with a problem in Web Service Composition, where I need to a generate WSDL with given inputs and parameters. I want to start from scratch like java with some "element" method that can output a basic WSDL hierarchy. Thank you.
P.S. I did spend a reasonable amount of time looking for above-mentioned stuff but I do consider the probability of encountering an open source implementation from this community.
Have a look at the tools provided in the Apache CXF project, which allows generating WSDL from Java source and vice versa. Similar functionality is provided by Apache Axis2.

How to generate simple java class from WSDL?

I want to generate a simple java class from this WSDL url:
https://xyz.pqr.com/Portal/Service.svc?wsdl

You can use Apache Axis.
It comes with a tool i.e. WSDL2Java converter.
using below command.
wsdl2java.bat -uri [URL of WSDL file] (on Windows)
or
wsdl2java.sh -uri [URL of WSDL file] on Linux
Through this you can generate the Stub classes from WSDL.
For me the best tool for generating java classes for my WCF web service is
http://easywsdl.com/
It uses ksoap2 library and supports complex types (with inheritance), data in attributes, header values and WCF extensions like Guid data type and data contract with IsReference attribute.
Some examples over here might help you: Apache CXF project
Or just use the JDK documentation, from 1.6 on the JDK includes JAX-WS functionality as standard, including the tools to generate client stubs from WSDL using wsimport.

Read complex types from wsdl in java

I'm havving a bit of a trouble finding some way to read the complex types from a wsdl in my Java app. I'm using WSDL4J but it doesn't seem to help me get the complex types. Is there a better lib for this?
Thank you in advance
Java 6 includes JAX-WS RI (the JAX-WS Reference Implementation). Just use wsimport to generate the Java artifacts from the WSDL:
wsimport -d generated http://example.org/stock?wsdl
And create a web service client using them (see this example).
I would just use NetBeans. Create a new Web Service Client, give it the WSDL and you're off and running.
