Hello, I've noticed subtle differences between the classes generated by wsimport and the codegen plugin. In particular:
JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 in JDK 6 and CXF 2.2.1 Consider this meteo web-service : http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx?WSDL It defines only 1 service, GlobalWeather. According to JaxWs specs, a factory class with the same name must be generated. This class has notable differences when generated by wsimport and codegen plugin. - constructors: * the wsimport only defines 2 constructors: public GlobalWeather(URL wsdlLocation, QName serviceName) { super(wsdlLocation, serviceName); } public GlobalWeather() { super(GLOBALWEATHER_WSDL_LOCATION, new QName(" http://www.webserviceX.NET";, "GlobalWeather")); } * the codegen defines 3 constructors: public GlobalWeather(URL wsdlLocation) { super(wsdlLocation, SERVICE); } public GlobalWeather(URL wsdlLocation, QName serviceName) { super(wsdlLocation, serviceName); } public GlobalWeather() { super(WSDL_LOCATION, SERVICE); } - methods: the cxf-codegen generated class provides several more methods: getGlobalWeatherHttpPost() getGlobalWeatherHttpPost(WebServiceFeature... features) getGlobalWeatherSoap12() getGlobalWeatherSoap12(WebServiceFeature... features) getGlobalWeatherHttpGet() getGlobalWeatherHttpGet(WebServiceFeature... features) My question is: is cxf 'richer' than jaxws 'reference' (??) implementation for pratical reasons ? Is it correct to rely on those cxf-only methods to implement particular features ? thanks valerio -- http://www.linkedin.com/in/vschiavoni http://jroller.com/vschiavoni
