web service "int myMethod(int i, String s)"

[Martin Garrido]

I will try to say in short: How to make a Web Service (WSDL) with the Java method "void myMethod(int i, String s)" create it manually? error
prone. Eclipse? Axis2?

I'd prefer not to use JavatoWSDL, since this make a dependent-platform WSDL.

Hi!
Using Java SE 6, you can use the wsgen command to create artifacts (such as WSDL and XML schema) from a class annotated with JAX-WS annotations.
This is probably the simplest way. Once you have generated a WSDL, you can edit it to suite your needs.
In fact, I think one annotation is enough for the absolute minimum:

package com.ivan;
// imports omitted to conserve space

@WebService
public class Calculator
{
    public void myMethod(int i, String s)
    {
        System.out.println("i = " + i + ", s = " + s);
    }
}

Then to create the artifacts from the above class, use wsgen:
wsgen -verbose -classpath [path-to-compiled-classes] -wsdl -d [path-to-write-generated-files-to] -r [path-to-output-wsdl-xml-files] -s [path-to-write-generate-src-to] -keep com.ivan.Calculator

With Axis2 is possible of some way?

The above is meant for use with JAX-WS and the tools (wsgen) that comes with the JavaSE 6 JRE or JDK. GlassFish is also distributed with wsgen and other webservice-related tools.
As far as I know, the Axis2 tools are somewhat different. My experience with Axis2 is somewhat limited, so I prefer not to elaborate on that subject.
Best wishes!
