Eclipse Web Service Explorer

I see RemoteSynthesis.com blogged about Using the Eclipse Web Services Explorer earlier but I stumbled on the Web Services Explorer this morning working with WSDL files. You will need to have Web Tools Platform (WTP) installed. It was a little confusing but once I figured it out it was pretty nice. The icon buttons are greyed which caused me to think they weren't available. Opening a WSDL and testing was straightforward but removing was a little confusing until I figured out the icon next to the refresh was an eraser. I like being able to toggle between form and source. Form provides a clean interface to interact with the WSDL while source gets you the details of what is happening.
