Support contract-first inbound web service generation

Currently, TXseries supports the generation of a WSDL and WSBIND file from a program structure file for inbound SOAP web services. This contract-last generation is provided by the DFHLS2WS program available in the z/OS Transaction Server and TXseries on AIX.

    Since this is not a popular option of implementing web services, and we did get more votes on this RFE by other customers, we are unable to prioritize it. If you still think that this RFE is needed for you, kindly provide more justification as asked in the previous update and reopen this RFE.
    Thanks.

    From what we understand, you would want to generate a copybook using the WSDL file using DFHWS2LS. Can you please elaborate your requirement.
