Re: "extension base" inheritance seems non-functional in wsdl2java?

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Actually, it appears Axis is completely oblivious to the "<extension 
base=.." tag.
I even tried to define :
<extension base="dummy:IDontExist">

and Axis doesn't even generate a warning! Seems to be there's a big 
piece of Axis not implemented here, I think when they see this 
definition, they just ignore it.

So since I'm the first person on the planet to want to factorise and 
re-use some of my complex objects among web services, how have you guys 
been doing it?
For example if all web services return a complex object with parameter 
"common1", "common2", and you want a web service to return
this common portion, but also a new parameter "specific1", do you 
currently just duplicate every single wsdl you have?

I was planning a usefull import statement to import this base type in 
the wsdl, and then each web service can extend it as needed.

Yes, sorry, it was just a copy paste error.
The correct wsdl is :
       <xsd:complexType name="EmailResult">
                     <complexContent>
                          <extension base="sdns:SDResult">
                            <xsd:all>
                              <xsd:element name="Result" 
type="xsd:string"/>
                            </xsd:all>
                          </extension>
                     </complexContent>
       </xsd:complexType>

but the end result is the same.
Does anyone have an example using a wsdl declaration like this that I 
can crib from?

If you copy and pasted this bit of XML, then you have an error. The 
sequence element doesn't have a closing tag and there are two closing 
tags for the extension element. However, I would have expected this 
to show up as an error when running WSDL2Java.

I'm trying to factorise my wsdl descriptions for all our web services,
but as soon as I use the <extension base="..." the stubs which are
generated are completely empty. Is there some special magic option I
need to set, or is this functionality just not supported by Axis yet?
(using 1.1 beta)
The class I want to extend is not even generated by Axis (in the example
below, the SDResult class)
I'd appreciate any thoughts on where I'm going wrong.
Here's my wsdl snippet :
...
       <xsd:schema>
       <xsd:complexType abstract="true" name="SDResult">
                   <xsd:sequence>
                       <xsd:element name="SDId"              
type="xsd:string"/>
                       <xsd:element name="SDIndex"         
type="xsd:int"/>
                       <xsd:element name="SDMimeType" 
type="xsd:string"/>
                       <xsd:element name="SDURL"          
type="xsd:string"/>
                       <xsd:element name="SDStatus"        
type="xsd:string"/>
                       <xsd:element name="SDMessage"   
 type="xsd:string"/>
               </xsd:sequence>
       </xsd:complexType>

       <xsd:complexType name="EmailResult">
                     <complexContent>
                          <extension base="SDResult">
                            <sequence>
                              <xsd:element 
name="Result"                type="xsd:string"/>
                            </extension>
                          </extension>
                     </complexContent>
       </xsd:complexType>
       </xsd:schema>
