Hi Robert,
Thank you for the update. Any idea when the next release of Axis2 will be
released? Also, Axis 2 is using few old versions of the dependencies like
jettison, woodstox-core, and comms-fileupload. Will all there old version be
updated to most recent versions that have addressed the security
vulnerabilities?
Thanks, Amir Razi

I finally found some time to look more at your question.
Also keep in mind that Axis2 uses an older version 3.x of XMLBeans, as the
project was retired then a few years later brought back to life because Apache
POI uses it. 5.2.0 was released recently.
Anyways, I am not familiar with the Extension Interfaces Feature yet I suggest
just adding it then to Axis2 as a new feature if you are so inclined as I doubt
it is hard to do. At a glance, early in the XMLBeans 5.x series that feature
had problems but seems to be fixed now.
If you could suggest how we could improve the docs here please send a pull
request to our apache axis2 github repo.
I am trying hard at the moment to wrap up the next Axis2 release soon and can
only say right now that I can get any changes you supply via pull requests
merged into our repo. Anything beyond that which requires help, please create a
Jira.

Hi Robert
Thanks for your answer. It took me a while to examine my options here,
it's a lot more complicated than the acronym "SOAP" suggests...
At first I was looking through the code that does code generation. It
seemed rather involved to fork it and make it do exactly what I wanted.
Then, following your hint about WSDL2Code's command line arguments, I
discovered '-xsdconfig'. I am already using the XMLBeans bindings, and
it turns out there's a feature in there that's exactly what I'm looking
for:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/XMLBEANS/ExtensionInterfacesFeature
. Nice, and I could get it to work with XMLBeans' scomp utility. I
managed to pass the location of the xsdconfig file through my pom.xml --
not clearly documented, see here:
https://marc.info/?l=axis-user&m=120177766308116. Apparently though,
the code in axis2-xmlbeans to parse the xsdconfig does not support this
Extension Interfaces Feature. (I also noticed that changing a generated
class name (qname element) fails with the xsdconfig through Maven, while
the same xsdconfig through scomp works.)
So back to square one I guess. Would it be easiest to just fork a
codegen package and make a quick and dirty hack in the code or a stylesheet?
Greetings
