Try using DomXML classes for generating the XML. It will provide you option for setting attributes and namespaces and even to parse xml.

Hi Prasanna,

 

Thanks for the response . But DomXML classes will help me create a request message for webservice or parse a xml response.

How can i generate the argument/metadata class which will support attribute for a tag ?.

i want to generate wsdl from this class.

so when the end system hits my service it will be able to pass xml attribute in the req message

 

please advice.

 

Regards,

Sandy

If you have written a webservice in Apex, you should be able to generate the WSDL for that.

 

Check if this helps: http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Exposing_Service_and_Support_Data_using_Apex_Web_Services
