I have a WSDL file, and also i can retrieve the XSD file as well, in a server. i need to read either WSDL or XSD and generate a SOAP request accordingly in Android.
Thanks !!!
Use can kSoap for SOAP request.Please check my answer to this thread.

There is a requirement by our client to create XML request messages from the WSDL file. The WSDL file has some 50 requests and responses. I am able to host to port 8080 the WSDL file and get response in SOAP UI for each request.
How to create those XML request and response messages(seen in SOAP UI)? Is there any SOAP UI jar files available to do the same work as SOAP UI?
The WSDL and XSD files are available and I am able to generate classes.
One option is to compile the wsdl into java classes using the wsimport utility, which can be invoked via various maven plugins, like the cxf-codegen-plugin if you're using maven or gradle. This will generate JAXB classes that represent requests and responses and JAXWS classes representing the actual services. You would use the generated classes to create request objects, call the web service operations, and receive responses back, all completely in java.
I am trying to implement a soap ws client in my java application. I have a WSDL file to generate the client stubs. When I implemented the code, I saw that the WSDL file is out of date and I can not get the response as expected in the WSDL. I do not have an option to make the vendor update WSDL.
What are my options to implement the client properly?
Is it possible to fix the WSDL manually or intercept the response before generated codes receive the response?
Thank you.
You can always get the most updated WSDL by accessing the URL from the browser. Since you are able to communicate with the server application I assume you have the server application endpoint.
The URL should be simller to the folliwng
http[s]://(IP or Domain Name)[:port]/.../...?WSDL
Here is an example for a common WSDL online for global weather as an example of how WSDL URL look like

Additional Details:
You can re-generate the stub classes from WSDL URL directly using many tools like:
Axis

I wish to consume a SOAP webservice from the Govt. of India public data sets. Here is an sample URL:
http://data.gov.in/sites/default/files/Fish_2013.xml
I have been using REST APIs and have never used a SOAP one.This is a SOAP webservice and it does not give me any information about the wsdl file location. As per my understanding I can generate a client using the WSDL if available and use it but how do I use a SOAP API without WSDL.
Most of the other posts talk about changing the response format but then its not possible in my case.
You can do 2 tricks:
install a local webserver
map the localhost/yourproject?wsdl to that xml file
use a Soap client generator tool on that wsdl link ( some allow other links wich doesn't end at wsdl some doesn't)
use the generated artifacts to consume soap.
I'm using JaxWs/JaxB in a webservice, but I don't like the fact that all my xml files (be it the ones I send or receive) contain SOAP envelopes. How can I get rid of those?
All I need is a clean xml file that the web service returns without any SOAP envelope. That part of the xml file is redundant in my case.
I have spent several days on this, but I just can't seem to get rid of it.
jaxws is a technology for creating webservices using the SOAP protocol, which by definition includes the SOAP envelope. if you don't want the SOAP envelope, don't use jaxws/SOAP. you could instead use one of the jaxrs related technologies (e.g. jersey), or you could simply implement a servlet which accepts xml data.
You can use JIBX for this purpose: http://jibx.sourceforge.net/
I would like to be able to see the XML Stream generated by my CXF generated from WSDL client.
Is there a way to do this ?
For example, I'm building my request with Java objects, and I would like to see the XML stream built by CXF before it sends it to the server.
Thank you for your answer !
You can use the LoggingInterceptors CXF includes.
See:
http://cwiki.apache.org/CXF20DOC/debugging.html
You can use TCPMon to capture the web service requests and responses as they're sent and received.
