why SOAP without WSDL? -


is there reason deploy or consume soap service without using wsdl "file"?

explanation:

i'm in situation 3rd-party has created soap service not follow wsdl file have created. think forced ignore wsdl file in order consume service. therefore i'm researching how this.

what wondering why possible this? intention?

is designed can use poor services made poor programmers? surely there must better reason. wish wasn't possible. demand write properly.

the wsdl supposed public document describes soap service, describes signatures of methods available in service.

of course there may service providers want expose service consumers, don't want make signature of service public, if make little bit harder people don't want using service find or attempt use it. signature of services might expose private information schema of data example.

but don't see excuse writing wsdl doesn't match service. worry if can't wsdl right quality of service going like?

to answer other question yes can consume service without wsdl. if using visual studio example have vs build proxy based on incorrect wsdl , tweak match correct service method signatures. need make sure data contracts , method contracts in proxy match actual service data contracts , method contracts.
