It make certain sense but looks somewhat weird. Normally, people create WSDL out of some service.

It's may weird but it's a requirement for us to create a WCF service from the existing WSDL, where we don't have access to actual service and we need some similar WSDL generated from our service which can deal with fake data instead of actual service data(for which we have WSDL).

If you see the link I provided for stack overflow, there are many others who need the similar things. It's not very uncommon.

If you don't know the answer/way, just go away from this, It's okay. Please don't down vote just because you don't know the answer or don't like the question or just meaningless for you.

I am looking for a solution. Thanks in advance.

You could use Svcutil tool

svcutil your.wsdl /l:vb (if you want Visual Basic)

Thanks. I have tried this option before. This doesn't give everthing I was looking for. I have added FLATWSDL option with it. Still It was not giving exact service from which I can have a exactly similar WSDL output.

Anyhow thanks for your help. :)
