Calling a web service using a SOAP Client

Hi Guys,

I was tryng to invoke the simple web service which I had defined in force.com using apex code it is a simple say hello program which takes a parm and says hello.

I generated the WSDL for hte same hello program using setu -> api -> apex code -> generate wsdl.

Even i have generated the enterprise WSDL for hte same.

I used the WSDL2java and supplied the enterprise wsdl to geenrate the code and i had put in my dev envioronment and it compiled succesfuly.

Now can anyone of you please let me know how to write a SOAP clinet invoke the web service.

 

Thanks

Chandra.

could you elaborate on the desired communications between your Java Program and your Salesforce ORG?

Consider that there are 2 different communication paths: for Inbound Messaging, you only need the Enterprise WSDL and include it in your external program to read/write data in Salesforce.
For Outbound Messaging i.e. reading data from 3rd party system, you'd take their WSDL and generate an Apex class using that file.

create an instance on the enterprise API stub, call login. create an instance of your apex stub, set the sessionId header to the sessionId returned by the login call, call your helloWorld operation.
