7. http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/listServices

8. http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/HelloWorld?wsdl //copy this url

9. D:\temp\aaxis>wsdl2java -uri http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/HelloWorld?wsdl -o client

10. write client program
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

d:\temp\aaxis\client\src\com\abi> edit Test.java

package com.abi;
import com.abi.*;
import com.abi.HelloWorldStub.SayHello;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
HelloWorldStub stub = new HelloWorldStub();
//Create the request

}


11. compile with auto generate ant via wsdl2java tool
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


D:\temp\aaxis\client> ant
OR

  <axis2-wsdl2java wsdlfilename="http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/HelloWorld?wsdl" output="d:/temp/aaxis" />
  </target>
  </project>



// RUN Manual Script and write the client program and then do steps for execute
D:\temp\aaxis> ant

12. //Execute the client
