IntelliJ IDEA 2023.3 Help

Generate Java Code from WSDL dialog

The dialog opens after you create a Java module and enable Web services client development in it. To access the dialog at any time during development, select the desired client module in the Project view and choose Tools | XML WebServices and WSDL | Generate Java Code From WSDL from the main menu.

Use the Generate Java Code From WSDL dialog to generate the client-side XML-Java bindings based on the desired WSDL descriptor of the target Web service. Technically, IntelliJ IDEA generates Java code from WSDL using third party libraries. The command that control this process uses data that you specify in the Generate Java Code From WSDL dialog.

Support Wrapped Document/Literal Style

Configure processing of "wrapped" document/literal, which is a document literal variation that wraps parameters as children of the root element.

By default, this is enabled, and a set of conditions defines whether top-level elements are "unwrapped" and each component of the element should be treated as an argument of the operation. The following conditions apply to "unwrapped" elements:

  • An input message consists of single part.

  • This single part is an element.

  • The element has the same name as the operation.

  • The element's complex type has no attributes.

If disabled, there will be no special treatment for "wrapped" document/literal style operations.
