About WSDL
WSDL or Web Services Description Language (pronounced 'wiz-dul') is an XML-based language for describing Web services and how to access them. From the point of view of SOAP, a "wsdl" file is just an XML file describing the format of SOAP messages which can be sent.
Structure
WSDL files contain the following major elements:
- <types> - defines the data types that are used by the web service.
- <message> - defines the data elements of an operation.
- <portType> - describes a web service, the operations that can be performed, and the messages that are involved - the most important stuff.
- <binding> - the message format and protocol details for each port.
