Seems to me that we need a new extension - WSDL2WSIF. This could either
extend WSDL2Java or extend the base framework WSDL2.
If I could get some more information from you folks about what you actually
generate, I could help create this extension (next week - this week I'm
rather strapped for time).

Anthony,
I would think that a different approach would be much better:
1. Fix WSDL2Java so that it either ignores or correctly processes the WSDL
you run it.
Then
2. Enhance WSDL2Java with an API that gives more control over which
artifacts you want/need generated. This MAY be reasonable to expose on the
command line, but lets not give a poor user too many obscure options. :-)
This sounds like the kind of changes that would be more widely beneficial
to everyone, don't you think?

Subject: [axis] WSDL2Java enhancements for WSIF
In WSIF we use the AXIS WSDL2Java tool to generate the interfaces and
complex type classes that WSIF requires.
Currently WSDL2Java will always also generate the stub classes that WSIF
does not require, and also when using WSDL that includes some of the WSIF
specific bindings WSDL2Java will abend. This isn't a problem as the abend
happens after the classes WSIF requires have been written out, and its easy
enough to delete the stubs WSIF doesn't use, but it would be nice from the
WSIF perspective if WSDL2Java had a parameter which said to only to
generate the WSIF required classes.
If we made this change, say adding a -w switch to WSDL2Java and all the
other associated changes to do this, would this be considered for adding to
the standard AXIS WSDL2Java?
