Using the WSDL Editor

ProcedureTo create a partner link type with one role

  1. If the WSDL file contains a port type that is not associated with a partner link type, then the Auto Create button appears in the Partner Link Types area. To generate a partner link type that references the port type, click Auto Create.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • Click Add Partner Link Type.

    • Drag the Partner Link Type icon from the Palette onto a blank portion of the Partner Link Types area.

    • Right-click a blank portion of the Partner Link Types area and choose Add PartnerLinkType.

    The configuration box for the partner link type appears. The partner link type contains a default role.

  3. In the right side of the configuration box, specify the port type that the service will use to receive messages. To create a new port type, double-click Enter or Select a Port Type and enter the name. To use an existing port type, click Enter or Select a Port Type and select the port type from the drop-down menu.

  4. If you created a new port type, or if you want to add one or more operations to an existing port type, then do the following:

    1. Drag one or more operations from the Palette onto the dashed vertical line that extends below the port type.

    2. For each operation, select the messages. You can double-click <No Message Selected> and select a message from the drop-down list. Alternately, you can drag a message from the Navigator window onto <No Message Selected>.
