The WSDL Editor enables you to edit Web Services Description Language (WSDL) files.

WSDL is an XML-based language for describing web services. A WSDL file contains the following types of information:

• Information about the functionality of the web service
• Information about how to access the web service

The WSDL Editor supports version 1.1 of the WSDL specification.

The WSDL Editor provides the following views:

• In the Source view, the underlying XML source code appears. You can directly edit the XML.
• In the WSDL view, you use GUI components to configure the elements and attributes of the WSDL file.
• In the Partner view, you can visualize and configure the abstract elements in a WSDL file.

NetBeans Enterprise Pack also includes a wizard that enables you to create a WSDL file. You must choose one of the following approaches:

• Create a WSDL file from scratch
• Create a WSDL file based on an existing WSDL file
