I need comunicating using java with a WebService that uses the WSDL technology. I tried some libraries but with no success, thus, I decided to do it manually.

My plan is getting a .xml which uses the comunication (filtering with fiddler for example) and copy it manually building a string. So the .xml will be ok. Do I need to take care of anything else?

Do I have to do any more? Http request, response?

I wouldn't like to create all the structure for the xml and after that, find that I can't continue the comunication.

Thanks

    The Axis2 framework makes web service clients automagically. And there are others as well. No need to build your own parser if you don't really want to. Commented Sep 26, 2011 at 7:08

Java comes with a complete API for XML Web Services, this is JAX-WS. (lot of documentation available with a simple serach with google)

it allows developers to build a working client with very little effort starting from a WSDL file (seems your case)

I really discourage you to build the client by yourself. You should care about SOAP message building, message sending, response parsing and so on.
