<title>Exposing a static WSDL</title>
<para>
As indicated above, a static WSDL file can be exposed by using the
<classname>SimpleWsdl11Definition</classname>. Simply wire it up, and give it a
<interfacename>Resource</interfacename> for the <property>wsdl</property> property, or use the
contructor, as shown in the example above.

<title>Dynamically creating a WSDL from an XSD</title>
<para>
As shown in <xref linkend="tutorial-publishing-wsdl"/>, Spring Web Services can generate a WSDL
file from a XSD schema, using conventions. The next application context snippet shows how to
create such a dynamic WSDL file:
</para>
<programlisting><![CDATA[
<bean id="holiday" class="org.springframework.ws.wsdl.wsdl11.DynamicWsdl11Definition">
<property name="builder">
<bean class="org.springframework.ws.wsdl.wsdl11.builder.XsdBasedSoap11Wsdl4jDefinitionBuilder">
<property name="schema" value="/WEB-INF/xsd/Orders.xsd"/>
<property name="portTypeName" value="Orders"/>
<property name="locationUri" value="http://localhost:8080/ordersService/"/>
</bean>
</property>
</bean>]]></programlisting>
<para>
The <classname>DynamicWsdl11Definition</classname> uses a
<interfacename>Wsdl11DefinitionBuilder</interfacename> implementation
to generate a WSDL the first time it is requested.
Typically, we use a <classname>XsdBasedSoap11Wsdl4jDefinitionBuilder</classname>, which builds
a WSDL from a XSD schema. This builder iterates over all <literal>element</literal> elements
found in the schema, and creates a <literal>message</literal> for elements that end with the
defined request or response suffix. The default request suffix is <literal>Request</literal>;
the default response suffix is <literal>Response</literal>, though these can be changed by
setting the <property>requestSuffix</property> and <property>responseSuffix</property>
properties, respectively.
Next, the builder combines the request and response messages into a WSDL
<literal>operation</literal>s, and builds a <literal>portType</literal> based on the operations.
</para>
<para>
For instance, if our <filename>Orders.xsd</filename> schema defines the
<literal>GetOrdersRequest</literal> and <literal>GetOrdersResponse</literal> elements, the
<classname>XsdBasedSoap11Wsdl4jDefinitionBuilder</classname> will create a
<literal>GetOrdersRequest</literal> and <literal>GetOrdersResponse</literal> message, and a
<literal>GetOrders</literal> operation, which is put in a <literal>Orders</literal> port type.
