---------------------------------------
Are you referring to a case of a subresource locator returning a JAXB bean ?

> Improve WADL Generator Extensibility for ID generation
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-6064
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6064
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JAX-RS
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Reporter: Mikhail S
> Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin
> Fix For: 3.1.0, 3.0.3
>
>
> WADLGenerator class is not extensible and prevents extensions for simple
> customizations.
> Example: We would like to use custom IDs on the resource and methods. The
> mechanism provided in CXF requires to either use {{@XmlRootElement}} or rely
> on the default mechanism which will use fully qualified class name as the
> resource ID.
> Our beans are annotated with {{@WebService}} annotation (and other metadata)
> so it would only require a slight extension of the WADL generator to utilize
> a different strategy.
> However, this task becomes quite unattainable given the current design of the
> WADLGenerator. It basically requires to create (and maintain) a copy of the
> class that extends WADL generator.
> In general, WADL generator extensibility could be reviewed (at least private
> vs protected methods, allowing additional strategy injection for ID
> generation that defaults to some built-in strategy).
