WSDL file has to be downloaded every time, new custom field or object is created ..?

I'm using soap api's in my java code to extract salesforce data. But when a new custom field is added to an object i am not able to extract data from that entity. The same code works if I download the new .wsdl

 

Is there a way in which i dont have to download .wsdl everytime a new custom field or object is added..?

The partner API lets you build clients that are more dynamic and metadata driven, take a look at switching from the enterprise API to the partner API.

I do not experience this issue with the enterprise wsdl. New fields are not accessible until I create a new wsdl, but old ones remains accessible and apps are not broken by adding a field to an object.
