The code generator won't modify existing code, it'll only overwrite AFAIK.

The recommended approach to this is to write classes implementing the
service interfaces yourself, in a different package, and leave the
auto-generated skeleton implementations alone. (Obviously you can copy
these as a place to start...) That way none of your code will get
overwritten. You also have to change the references to the skeletons
in services.xml to point to your own implementation classes. I do this
in an ant task like this:
<replace file="${codegen.dir}/resources/services.xml">
<replacetoken>info.cathdb.ws.grid.RetrieveSkeleton</replacetoken>
<replacevalue>info.cathdb.grid.axis2bridge.RetrieveImplementer</replacevalue>
</replace>
Let me know if that doesn't make sense and I'll attempt to explain better.
