We published some service last year using C# and WCF. Now we are porting code into java and we need to keep wsdl compatibility.
Some one gave me wsdl generated from C# code. It looked real ugly. Each method was throwing its own version of same exception. I used CXF wsdl2Java to general my code and I see 10s of exception representing same exceptiong. For e.g Look at function definition generated via CXF wsdl2java public ComputerInfo getComputers( @WebParam(name = "groupId", targetNamespace = "XXX")Integer groupId, @WebParam(name = "onlyActiveComputers", targetNamespace = "XXX") Boolean onlyActiveComputers, @WebParam(name = "minComputerId", targetNamespace = "XXX")Integer minComputerId, @WebParam(name = "maxResults", targetNamespace = "XXX")Integer maxResults ) throws GetComputersObjectNotFoundFaultFaultFaultMessage, GetComputersInvalidDataFaultFaultFaultMessage, GetComputersGeneralFaultFaultFaultMessage, GetComputersDataAccessFaultFaultFaultMessage; I should have only four exception classes (ObjectNotFoundFault, InvalidDataFault, GeneralFault, DataAccessFault) but there are 100 opeartions in wsdl and each of them throw those same 4 exceptions but generated code has 100 * 4 = 400 exception classes :-(. Each exception has prefixed method name + exception name + FaultFaultMessage" We should have never publised such ugly wsdl but now nothing can't be done. Is there any to consoliodate those 400 exceptions into 4 same exception classes when I am generating code via CXF wsdl2java. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks,
