Thanks for the tips Russell. I will look into SymbolTable. ANd you are right .. -the schema model is in the same spirit for schemas as WSDL4J is to WSDL. And i would greatly appreciate if you can take a look at the Schema module.
Thanks Vidyanand. -----Original Message----- From: Russell Butek [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 1:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Introduction Welcome aboard, Vidyanand! If you'd like to look at putting your schema model into WSDL2Java, I'd start with org.apache.axis.wsdl.symbolTable.SymbolTable. That class is populated from WSDL4J - for the WSDL constructs - and from a Document - for the schema stuff. The schema population is a lot of ugly code. I'd hope your schema model would be in the same spirit for schemas as WSDL4J is for WSDL. That would really clean up the SymbolTable code. I'm sorry I haven't had time to take a look at your work, yet. The folks who give me my paycheck have been demanding a bit more of my time lately, so I have to oblige. I hope to take a look soon.

For those who don't know me( which unfortunately is almost everyone) , my name is Vidyanand Murunnikara ( with a 15 letter middle name which I prefer to omit :-) ). Vidya should be easier for all of you to use( though that is a typical gal's name in India) . Presently I am working for a startup in the bay area. I have been working with Axis for the past one year and am greatly impressed at the thoughts that has gone into this project. Though I have worked with a lot of open source software, mostly apache, I have never been involved in the development of one. So it is more likely than not that I might end up doing something that is not exactly right( though I assure you that I have read apache guidelines a good enough times) So please feel free to correct me anytime you feel I am doing something wrong. Any advice on the issues is mostly welcome. My initial work in Axis would revolve around in making Axis use the XmlSchema module ( in the proposals directory ). I would very much appreciate any comments/design considerations on this. The one suggestion that I have heard so far is from Tom - about integrating SymbolTable with XmlSchema. The places I was thinking it would be helpful is WSDL2Java and Java2WSDL. If someone can point me to as to a good starting point for these two it would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to working with all of you and the good times Axis has ahead of it :-) Cheers Vidyanand.
