I generated Java files from WSDL with WSDL2Java converter, but I don't know how can I use service with these files, because there are no examples. I'm implementing client side.

Are you using Axis1 or Axis2? If it is Axis2 then which data binding option have you used? What are the exact parameters you have specified to wsdl2java? – Andrey Adamovich Nov 03 '09 at 06:59

Axis1 and I only gave option -s wsdl_filename.wsdl and of course classpath for java including all required jars – newbie Nov 03 '09 at 07:02

Regarding Axis2: read these these links they contain some examples:
http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_5_1/quickstartguide.html#clients
http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_0/userguide3.html
EDIT: Regarding Axis1: it is based on JAX-RPC and you need to instantiate stub object or use service locator to get stub instance and all WS operations will be in that. An example is given here:
public class Tester {
public static void main(String [] args) throws Exception {
// Make a service
AddressBookService service = new AddressBookServiceLocator();
// Now use the service to get a stub which implements the SDI.
AddressBook port = service.getAddressBook();
// Make the actual call
Address address = new Address(...);
port.addEntry("Russell Butek", address);
}
}

1I have this kind of files : ServiceBindingImpl.java ServiceBindingStub.java ServicePortType.java ServiceService.java ServiceLocator.java ... – newbie Nov 03 '09 at 07:32

Then just instantiate your ServiceLocator.
result = new ServiceLocator().getService(). – Andrey Adamovich Nov 03 '09 at 07:38( ) -
2For some reason ServiceLocator doesn't have getService() method. Thx for help anyway – newbie Nov 03 '09 at 07:55

Normally a client doesn't instantiate a stub in Web Services, you would use the service locator and call the get method. I can't tell from your question, but if you are asking a more general "Where do I get JavaDocs (or such) to better understand the API", you would have to tell use which WS you are using.
