To generate a COBOL Program Web Services interface from a WSDL or JSON file

  1. In the Solution Explorer, right-click a WSDL or JSON file in a current project; then select Generate Web Service from the context menu.
  2. On the Generate Web Service dialog box, select the Service radio button.
  3. Optionally, provide an alternative service name in the Service Name field.
    Note: The service interface name must be unique within an Enterprise Developer project.
  4. In the Program Name field, optionally provide an alternative program name for the generated skeleton COBOL program.
  5. Click OK.

    Enterprise Developer generates and adds the appropriate files to the current project in a folder with the same name as the service interface.

Tip: For a description of each field and control on the Generate Web Service dialog box, see the Generate Web Service dialog box reference topic.
