Hey,
Im using Axis2 (latest) and all defaults for inputs to Java2WSDL. I have a
simple service, and each operation has a "return" element in it. e.g.
<xs:element name="addMemberSimpleResponse">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="return" nillable="true"
type="ns:WsAddMemberResult"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
This means the XML that comes back looks like this:
<soapenv:Body>
<ns:addMemberSimpleResponse xmlns:ns="http://webservices.whatever/xsd";>
<ns:return type="whatever.webservices.WsAddMemberResult">
<ns:resultCode xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:nil="true" />
I have someone connecting to the web service using flash or flex, and there is
an XML -> object converter, which converts the XML into a hierarchy of objects
and fields. But since "return" is a keyword, it barfs. So, I was wondering if
there is a way (besides hand-editing the WSDL or using XSLT) to customize
java2wsdl to get that element to be generated as "the_return" or something else
besides "return".
Thanks!

Here is the email from the user:
Notice that the element name on line two of the response is named "return"
(forget about the "ns" namespace for now). This is perfectly legal XML but
"return" is a reserved word in most languages and attempts to access the
element directly cause problems when compiling the code. e.g.
--- BEGIN EXAMPLE FLASH CODE---
var test : XML = XML("<top><body>hello world</body><return>good
bye</return></top>"); // casts string to xml
debugit.text = test.body;
debugit.text = test.child( "return" );
--- END EXAMPLE FLASH CODE---
All of the above code works fine. Notice that I access the "body"
element directly but accessed the "return" element using a child method. The
compiler complains if I attempt to use the syntax "test.return" or any
variation of it: "test.return.toString()".
Naming an element "return" is valid; I'm suggesting that it is probably not
good practice to use common reserve words as element names (or attribute names
for that matter).
