Get the webservice definition (WSDL) and use a wsdl2java client to generate java client for the WSDL. Use the generated client code to invoke the webservice. Webservice framework that you choose will take care of constructing and parsing SOAP request/response for you. Example , refer Apache Axis

Get the WSDL for the web service, and use it for your tooling. A good place to start is the Web Service Explorer in Eclipse Java EE.
