Frankly, I do not know what the WSDL file is doing there (nor do I know whether it is accurate!). Apache SOAP does not consumer or generate WSDL. Axis does both. However, the WSDL generator in Axis can generate WSDL for classes you use as Apache SOAP services (well, it worked for me when I tried it once), which is great if you need to support clients that expect WSDL.
