UDDI from MS Visual Studio  Locate

Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 includes a wizard for accessing a UDDI registry that allows you to find a WSDL/ASMX file in the UDDI registry. Once you have found a WSDL, you can add a web reference to the Web service definition file to your project.

To start the Web Reference Wizard:

  1. On the Project menu in Visual Studio .NET, click Add Web Reference.

  2. The Add Web Reference dialog box shown in Figure 20 appears. Enter the URI of a UDDI registry or the URI of a WSDL document representing the Web service. To browse the Live BEA AquaLogic Service Registry at Systinet's web site, enter http://systinet.com/uddi/web or http://systinet.com/uddi/bsc/web.
