[uddi-comment] Best practice: locating a web service access

[Paul Sterk <paul.sterk@Sun.COM>]

Hi,

Is there a best practice for determining the address location or
access point of a web service when using UDDI and WSDL?  To elaborate:
in UDDI, the access point for a web service is contained in:

<bindingTemplate serviceKey="" bindingKey="">
        <description></description>
        <accessPoint URLType="http>http://localhost:8080</accessPoint>

                                    ...
</bindingTemplate>

This information is also located in the WSDL document:

<wsdl:service name="">
        <soap:address location="http://localhost:8080/>
                                    ....
</wsdl:service>

So, the question is when the web service proxy client goes to the
registry to find the updated location, should it check the binding
template or the WSDL file?  Is there a best practice in this area?

Thanks,
Paul
