Folks,

The real problem here is that the testcase for wsdl2java is cr*p. I'll raise a JIRA to track this.

Basically, the testcase runs the wsdl2java tool a number of times and produces some output. Nothing wrong with that, except that all that is being tested is that the tool code can be invoked without getting an exception.

There is *no* checking that what is produced by the tool makes any sense at all. And in fact, the code produced DOESN'T make any sense - try compiling it by hand.

So, this test needs changing and extending. There must be a test done on the output code itself - ideally there should be an "expected output" which is checked against the actual output.

One other point is that the generated code looks VERY poor - it's Java, but not as you'd write it. For an SDO used by a method, for example, instead of an import statement for the SDO class, followed by a variable declaration using the class, the full path to the class is used on every occasion it's referenced (YUK !!!!). Worse, the test doesn't actually generate these SDO classes - hence the code won't compile since they can't be found


Yours,  Mike.

Hi Luciano

It looks like this means that we are no longer trying to compile the source
code that is generated as part of the generator test. I'm a little concerned
that this means that we are not checking that the generator generates valid
output. Looking at the tests though it doesn't seem that it does explicit
checks anyhow. So how about we build on your change here and do a textual
comparison of what was generated against what was expected to be generated?

Simon
