Example

wsgen -d stock -cp myclasspath stock.StockService

This will generate the wrapper classes needed for StockService annotated with @WebService annotation inside stockdirectory.

wsgen -wsdl -d stock -cp myclasspath stock.StockService

This will generate a SOAP 1.1 WSDL and schema for your Java class stock.StockService annotated with @WebService annotation.

wsgen -wsdl:Xsoap1.2 -d stock -cp myclasspath stock.StockService

Will generate a SOAP 1.2 WSDL.

Note that you do not have to generate WSDL at the development time as JAXWS runtime will automatically generate a WSDL for you when you deploy your service.
