Calling SSRS web services from Java using Axis

Hi,

I'm working on a project where I'll need to call the SSRS web services from a java servlet. We are using the Axis implementation of the SOAP protocol.

I've previously used SSRS web services from C#, but not from Java. Before I start this endeavor does anyone have any bits of wisdom they'd like to share that's going to make this easier?

Also, I've searched for tutorials, samples, source code, etc.. for this situation (that is, using java to call SSRS web services), but can't find anything available. Does anyone know where I can find resources such as these for this particular technology pairing?

Thanks for the help.

Try WSDL2Java tool to create a java proxy to the reporting services.

The WSDL is accessible from one of these url depending on the version(2000 or 2005) and flavor (management or execution) of the service

http://<server>/reportserver/reportservice.asmx?wsdl

http://<server>/reportserver/reportservice2005.asmx?wsdl

http://<server>/reportserver/reportexecution2005.asmx?wsdl

An example on accessing .NET web services (not SSRS specific) from Java is available here:
