Excellent work, Jim，
If you can also comment on the relationship between the java2wsdl and
java2cs, that will be great
IMHO, the java2wsdl does support the jaxws, and simple frontend, but
it's only generate the wsdl, is it the duplicate function in the java2cs,
Or is it possible to extend the java2wsdl (we need to find a better name
for it)
Or java2cs will call into the java2wsdl to generate the wsdl files, and
associate the artifacts (like the beans/binding files in case of jaxws)
And the java2cs should also generate the configuration files, right?
(spring, servlet etc.), and also we need have the ant tasks, so
generating artifacts, and then compile, deploy, all in one command.
All in all, looks a good plan :)

Hi All ,
Here is my proposal for implementing a code first tool to generate
client ,server side code and wsdl . With this tool , user can more
easily deploy a service with java class in cxf.
If this is OK, I will start on writing this tool.
Goal
----------
1. Generate jaxws frontend client server code and wsdl from Jaxws
conformed classes
2. Generate simple frontend client server code and wsdl from Pojo
class . Tool can generate and compile interface class or impl class
the server and client side needed
from the user provided classes.
Tool Description
-----------
Tool Name : java2cs
Description : takes a user defined class to generate jaxws or simple
frontend client and server side code
Options : -cp classpath to load the user defined classes
-server generate server side code only, if client and server is not
specified , both client and server code will be generated
-client generate client side code only
-frontend jaxws or simple , default is simple frontend. which control
to generate jaxws and simple style server and client
-databinding jaxb or aegis databinding. jaxws frontend will use jaxb
databinding and simple frontend will use aegis databinding by default .
-wsdl control to generate wsdl.
class the full class name used to generate client and server
Generated Code Sample
--------------------------
1. jaxws frontend.
Server code :
=========
public class Server {
protected Server() throws Exception {
System.out.println("Starting Server");
Object implementor = new GreeterImpl();
String address = "http://localhost:9000/SoapContext/SoapPort";;
Endpoint.publish(address, implementor);
}
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
new Server();
System.out.println("Server ready...");
Thread.sleep(5 * 60 * 1000);
System.out.println("Server exiting");
System.exit(0);
}
}
Client code :
========
...
SOAPService ss = new SOAPService(wsdlURL, SERVICE_NAME);
Greeter port = ss.getSoapPort(); port.sayHi();
...............
2. simple frontend :
Server code
=========
ServerFactoryBean svrBean = new ServerFactoryBean();
svrBean.setBus(CXFBusFactory.getDefaultBus());
svrBean.setAddress("http://localhost:8080/Hello";);
svrBean.setTransportId("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/http/";);
svrBean.setBindingId("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/";);
svrBean.setServiceBean(new GreeterImpl());
svrBean.getServiceFactory().setDataBinding(new AegisDatabinding());
svrBean.setStart(true);
svrBean.create();
System.out.println("Server started");
Client code :
========
ClientProxyFactoryBean proxyFactory = new ClientProxyFactoryBean();
ClientFactoryBean clientBean = proxyFactory.getClientFactoryBean();
clientBean.setAddress("http://localhost:8088/Hello";);
clientBean.setBus(CXFBusFactory.getDefaultBus());
clientBean.setTransportId("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/http/";);
clientBean.setServiceClass(Greeter.class);
proxyFactory.getServiceFactory().setDataBinding(new AegisDatabinding());
Greeter client = (Greeter) proxyFactory.create();
Any thoughts and directions would be appreciated !
Thanks
Jim
