Makes sense thanks. I am just really looking forward to the code generator succesfully spitting out Java Beans with Axis2 ;)
With one of my SOAP projects, I decided I am not going to integrate into Axis2 until I can get Java Beans generated from my WSDL. There are just too many complex types to attempt to go in an create elements with attributes, nesting, etc. If WSDL changes, I would be really hosed recreating beans by hand. In my personal opinion, Java Bean generation is essential. There are many of us out there that have depended on abstracting from SOAP details even from manupulating XML in the request. To integrate into Axis2, folks are not going to want to take on too much of a burden getting up to speed with OM, although it appears that can be avoided entirely. chris --- Tom Jordahl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I believe Axis 1.x is going to continue to be very important to many > people as Axis2 has stated as non-goals various things (like a > "complete" Axis specific data binding, full rpc/encoded support, etc) > that the world still needs. > > There have been statements along the lines of "if you need that, why > wouldn't you use Axis1" made by some Axis2 folks (cough, Sanjiva, > cough). > :-) > > Glen and I are doing our best to nudge the active developers toward > supporting most (all?) of the stuff that Axis1 does.
