[Axis2] Abstract types and ADB

[Jens Rutschmann]

Hi all,

currently I'm trying to generate a client stub for this WSDL:
https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/datascopeapi/v1/extractionservice.asmx?wsdl
The SOAP 1.2 Binding in this WSDL seems to contain a few errors, so I removed it 
and the respective port before calling wsdl2java. The WSDL still contains a 
valid SOAP 1.1 binding as well as a port using it.

I'm using axis2 1.5.1 and use the following command line:

jens:~/tmpfs> /home/jens/tools/axis2-1.5.1/bin/wsdl2java.sh -uw -u -uri 
extractionservice.wsdl
 Using AXIS2_HOME:   /home/jens/tools/axis2-1.5.1
 Using JAVA_HOME:       /home/jens/.gentoo/java-config-2/current-user-vm
Retrieving document at 'extractionservice.wsdl'.
[WARN] Type {http://reuters.com/datascopeselect/ExtractionService/v1/}anyType 
missing!
jens:~/tmpfs>


After that there are only classes for the abstract types, but not for the 
complex types inheriting from the abstract types.

Example (from the WSDL, lines 680-695):
      <s:complexType name="InstrumentSearchRequest" abstract="true">
        <s:sequence>
          <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="PreferredIdentifierType" 
type="s:string" />
        </s:sequence>
      </s:complexType>
      <s:complexType name="InstrumentSearchRequestAll">
        <s:complexContent mixed="false">
          <s:extension base="tns:InstrumentSearchRequest">
            <s:sequence>
              <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" 
name="IdentifierSearchValue" type="s:string" />
              <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="IdentifierType" 
type="s:string" />
              <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="InstrumentTypes" 
type="tns:ArrayOfString" />
            </s:sequence>
          </s:extension>
        </s:complexContent>
      </s:complexType>

wsdl2java only generated a class for InstrumentSearchRequest but not for 
InstrumentSearchRequestAll.

Furthermore the generated stub interface contains errors:
(ExtractionService.java, lines 29-32)

                     public 
com.reuters.datascopeselect.extractionservice.v1.ArrayOfValueInfo 
getInstrumentTypes(


,com.reuters.datascopeselect.extractionservice.v1.CredentialsHeaderE 
credentialsHeader44)
                        throws java.rmi.RemoteException

Obviously that won't compile.


Is there anything i can do to create a functional client stub for that service 
using axis2 ?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Jens
