well... I think Axis itself only uses directly two externals to figure out the input/output parms: the WSDL it self, and WSDL4J. So that should be sufficient for it to be discovered again :-) Granted it may not be optimal from a performance or code re use aspect. As for Axis providing this information; Does Axis plan to externalize this as a service (i.e. API) ? Is it something if I write code to will be supported and can be depend on not changing? Or, should/will it be something internal to Axis?

well...If you see samples\client\DynamicInvoker.java, you will see that wsdl4j is not enough. I
needed patch and use our org.apache.axis.wsdl.gen.Parser. So the WSDL is actually parsed twice :(
Thanks,
