Hi Dims,
Thanks for the pointers.
Let me look at how to get the ReflectionWsmServiceFactory impl going.
after that I can start with WSMToAxisServiceBuilder to build an AxisService out of an anotated POJO.
Once I have something I will create a JIRA and attach a patch. U can take a look at the code and then we can take it from there.
If I have questions I will bug u again :-)
Btw, the Beehive mailing list seems to be a bit quiet, so I am wondering how to get WSM specific questions answered :-)

I think you need to implement ReflectionWsmServiceFactory first. The
angle of attack i am looking at is deploying a POJO with annotations.
(See AxisService.createService in Axis2 where one can deploy a pojo).
You will have to write a WSMToAxisServiceBuilder (see
WSDL11ToAxisServiceBuilder) to populate the AxisService info from WSM.
WDYT? Once we have this, we can get fancy with codegen etc.
thanks,
dims
