When using SOAP Apache, I created a Castor (from exolab) Serializer/Deserializer. I will look into it in order to generate JAXP-RPC compliant objects (if it can be done of course).

I think the simple thing to do might really be to just generate *all* the types, but I guess the worry here is that there will be huge commonly imported type library schemas of which only a few types are referenced for a given service?

Let's say that Object had the attribute "abstract=true", then
clearly the
Folder class should be generated since that would be the only
type that
could
be instantiated and passed over the wire.
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
In the case that Object does not have the " abstract=true"
attribute, then
either Object or Folder could be passed over the wire. It certainly
wouldn't
offend me to generate both. It certainly could offend a user
if it didn't
generate Folder.
+1 to generating both Object and Folder.
So if an xml type is referenced, then all complexTypes that extend the
referenced type
should be marked as referenced.

Please respond to
axis-dev
Russel,
You say "...But perhaps it SHOULD be generated because it
COULD be used as
an Object?"
I say: "It SHOULD be generated because it WILL be used."

Subject: What should WSDL2Java generate on inheritance?
Folks in axis-dev, there's a discussion going on in a xis-user
about what
WSDL2Java generates. Given:<complexType name="Object">
<sequence>
[...]
</sequence>
</complexType>
<complexType name="Folder">
<complexContent>
<extension base="types:Object">
<sequence>
[...]
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
<message name="addInput">
<part name="input" type="types:Object"/>
</message>
<message name="addOutput">
<part name="result" type="xsd:string"/>
</message>
<operation name="add">
<input message="cm:addInput"/>
<output message="cm:addOutput"/>
</operation>There are 2 types here: Object, and Folder (for which Object
is the base).
Object is generated because it's in the addInput message
which is in the
add operation. Folder is NOT generated because it isn't referenced
anywhere. But perhaps it SHOULD be generated because it
COULD be used as
an Object?
Question: what is the right thing to do?
