Acually the client need to invoke a method of server which takes mimemessage as input paramente and retuns its size. how should i go ahead.please suggest....

We all have urgent stuff to deal with...

You need to encode the image in the SOAP request, decode it at the server, and return a SOAP response.

What are your inputs to the service (request) and what are the outputs (response).

Code these as java objects, then generate the WSDL. Generate the client from the WSDL, host the webservice and you're done.

Easy.
