WSDL Synchronization

WSDL Synchronization

You can synchronize a WSDL data object when the WSDL files change. When you synchronize a WSDL data object, the Developer tool reimports the object metadata from the WSDL files.
You can use a WSDL data object to create a web service or a Web Service Consumer transformation.
You use a WSDL data object to create a Web Service Consumer transformation.
When you update a WSDL data object, the Developer tool updates the objects that reference the WSDL and marks them as changed when you open them. When the Developer tool compares the new WSDL with the old WSDL, it identifies WSDL components through the name attributes.
If no name attribute changes, the Developer tool updates the objects that reference the WSDL components. For example, you edit a WSDL file and change the type for simple element "CustID" from xs:string to xs:integer.
When you synchronize the WSDL data object, the Developer tool updates the element type in all web services and Web Service Consumer transformations that reference the CustID element.
When you synchronize the WSDL data object, the Developer tool updates the element type in all Web Service Consumer transformations that reference the CustID element.
If a name attribute changes, the Developer tool marks the objects that reference the WSDL component as changed when you open them.
For example, you edit a WSDL and change the name of an element from "Resp" to "RespMsg." You then synchronize the WSDL. When you open a web service that references the element, the Developer tool marks the web service name in the editor with an asterisk to indicate that the web service contains changes. The Developer tool updates the element name in the web service, but it cannot determine how the new element maps to a port. If the Resp element was mapped to a port in the Input transformation or the Output transformation, you must map the RespMsg element to the appropriate port.
The Developer tool validates the WSDL files before it updates the WSDL data object. If the WSDL files contain errors, the Developer tool does not import the files.
