getServiceLastUpdateTime Operation

This operation returns the date and time of the last update to a service WSDL, service XSD, or business object XSDs. The format of the last update time is ISO 8601.

Schema updates occur, whether there is an actual change in the WSDL or XSD, when you:
  • Perform customizations at run time using Application Composer and flexfields

  • Redeploy an enterprise application as part of an upgrade to a major release or a patch bundle

This operation may be useful if you generate service factory or JAX-WS proxy clients and want to determine whether to regenerate the client because of a change in the service interface.
