Hmm... The answer seems to be no, but this is per spec. I THOUGHT a
jaxb customization might work (<jxb:globalBindings
collectionType="indexed"/>) and that does make any of the collections in
the types (like any collection in the StockQuote object) be changed from
a List to an array. However, that has no impact on the jaxws generated
stuff (port type interface). I checked the RI and it generates the
same as CXF. I also checked the JAX-WS spec and that doesn't make any
allowance for making that an array. The parts generated on the
interface need to be the collections.
I guess my suggestion would be to not bother running wsdl2java at all.
Use the same interface/objects on the client side as you do on the
server side. Move the StockQuoteService interface and all the types it
needs into a shared jar.
Note: the RequestWrapper and ResponseWrapper annotations are wrong. They
should point to classes that would implement the wrapper types. Like a
GetQuotes.java. My suggestion is to just eliminate those
annotations. For CXF, they aren't needed at all.
