>From your example I can see you have access to the DataHandler from your client code, so you could then remove the generated file manually. I guess you want this to be done automatically. I think the generator do not have semantic information enough to decide if the file should be temporary or not. And I suspect there is no provision in WSDL to add this meta-data in a standard way.
Anyway, you could create a wrapper class for your "Image" class, in case you have not done it. This class, in addition to provide you with the logic to convert the raw data coming from the server to a real image instance could, for example, delete the file after building the object instance. It is not automatic, but at least you will have some encapsulation :-) HTH, Rodrigo Ruiz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Subhendu Kumar mohanty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2003 4:42 PM Subject: RE: Axis attachment file created in the Temp directory > Hi > > I am sending part of my wsdl which describes the datahandler > > <complexType name="Image"> > <sequence> > <element name="dataHandler" nillable="true" type="apachesoap:DataHandler"/> > <element name="data" type="xsd:base64Binary"/> > <element name="format" type="xsd:int"/> > </sequence> > </complexType> > > When I use WSDL2Java tool it creates a java object with three properties.
