Chris,
If I understand your question right, see section 3.5 of the WSDL 1.1 specification, the third to last paragraph: "If use is encoded, then each message part references an abstract type using the type attribute." WSDL spec should be at http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl -- Tom Jordahl Macromedia Server Development -----Original Message----- From: Chris Burnley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 02, 2002 8:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Correctness of org.apache.axis.wsdl.toJava.Utils.getOperationQName I have a situation where I a client is using an element instead of a type for a message parameter in my WSDL file (simplified example attached). When I generate the stubs, the operation name call looks like this: _call.setOperationName(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.xyz.com/schema/Elements", "anElement")); rather than the expected: _call.setOperationName(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.xyz.com/soap-services", "anOperation")); I read the comments for getOperationQName and someone wrote: // NOTE: it is possible for someone to define a part as an element // while using rpc/encoded, which is wrong and we might want to catch it // here. Is this actually true ? Could someone point me to the spec that points this out ? It seems that this could be easy to fix by adding @@ -566,6 +566,9 @@ if (ns == null) { ns = ""; } + else { + return new QName(ns, operationName); + } to Utils.java, revision RC1 regards, Chris Burnley
