Web Services wsdl file

[ADL]

I am creating a web service from LabVIEW 2009, but I need a wsdl file to be able to query from the client end.

Does LabVIEW 2009 allow me to create one automatically?

If not can anyone help point me in the right direction for creating one.

ADL-

Take a look through the NI Developer Zone Article: Using LabVIEW to Call SOAP Web Services.  This looks like it can provide some information you are looking for.

This article only allows you to import WDSL files from other web services.

I am talking about the ability for LabVIEW 2009 to create a WDSL file, when exposing a web service.  Without this, there is no menu to query to figure out what web services are exposed.

We use client software (which typically) queries the WDSL file, and then is able to automatically allow the queries that need to be filled out.

I have added a request to add as a feature to LabVIEW.

As of right now, this is currently not a feature of LabVIEW.  Where did you create your request to add as a feature?  If different, please post your product feedback at www.ni.com/contact.  This is looked at by our development team.

Hello everyone!

I'm using LabVIEW 2011. Does exists this functionality in this LV version?

How are you getting around the WSDL issue to do your silverlight interfacing?

punkmonkey: Could you explain what you mean? 

Currently LabVIEW still creates a WSDSC file which really doesn't conform to the WSDL standard.

This is primarily due to the fact that our websites are based on RESTful architecture, where as you would likely need to be SOAP based in order to get a WSDL file.

No worries. I got my Silverlight to access it in my viewmodel using REST calls as opposed to a WCF service. A little more coding in Visual Studio but it works.

Hello,

I was wondering if there are any news concerning the creation of .wsdl-files in LabVIEW.

I have created a LabVIEW project and added a web service along with web resources. I would like to create a .wsdl-file from this, in order to import it using Tools -> Import -> Web Service, so that I can access the provided resources. To clarify: I want to connect to my web service and then get a list of the available services.

In case the creation of a .wsdl-file is not possible: are there any other ways to gain access to the different web resources of my web service?

Hi, 

LabVIEW .wsdl creation has not been implemented. Please refer to the links below for more information about web services deployment.
