Hi Alex, hammm....... u are trying to have "Animal " class as the return type ,then according to your internal logic return a instance of it's subclass like Dog or Cat . AFAIK we can retrieve subclass of a any given class but I'm not sure is it possible to retrieve sub classes when you specify super class , So i don't think such feature available with Java2WSDL tool .
The simplest solution is to change your method signature to return a "Dog" instance , it will generate correct schema as i mention in my previous post . for a example , public Dog getDog () or public Dog getAnimal() will result in to a correct schema generation . Alternatively you may use JAX-WS services with Axis2 because JAXB define @XmlSeeAlso annotation [1] to archive your requirement. please refer link [2] also . Hope you can find any pointer from this .
