I recently used the Eclipse WebTools WSDL validator. It doesn't like
the way that Axis2 creates Schemas. If you look at the AddressBook
WSDL that gives you a good example.

    <wsdl:types>
        <xs:schema xmlns:ns="http://service.addressbook.sample";
attributeFormDefault="qualified" elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://service.addressbook.sample";>
            <xs:element name="findEntry">
            .... wrapper elements here
        </xs:schema>
        <xs:schema xmlns:ax21="http://entry.addressbook.sample/xsd";
attributeFormDefault="qualified" elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://entry.addressbook.sample/xsd";>
            <xs:complexType name="Entry">
            .... data type elements here

The problem is that the wrapper elements refer to the data-type
complextypes, which are defined in two separate schema chunks. So the
Eclipse WSDL validator sees these as separate and cannot resolve the
cross references.

Now the reason - I'm guessing - that Axis2 generates these in separate
schema chunks, is because it wants to give them separate target
namespaces.

So here are my questions:

1) I think this is new to 1.3 ... I certainly remember validating
WSDLs generated with older versions of Axis2 without problem.

2) Is it necessary to have the two target namespaces (sample vs sample/xsd)?

3) Can we fix this easily? Is there anyway of doing an import from one
chunk to the other.
