Hi,
I'm new to CXF and I'm having a lot of problems trying to consume the
checkVat webservice from the EU
(http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatService.wsdl)
After much experimentation I finally got past the can't find exception
by specifying the xmlns on jaxws bean.
Generated base code with wsdl2java.
This is my code now
package nl.mysite.service;
import eu.europa.ec.taxud.vies.services.checkvat.types.CheckVat;
import eu.europa.ec.taxud.vies.services.checkvat.types.CheckVatResponse;
@WebService(
targetNamespace="http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/services/checkVatService";,
name="urn:ec.europa.eu:taxud:vies:services:checkVat")
public interface CheckVatService {
@WebMethod
public CheckVatResponse checkVat(@WebParam CheckVat params);
}
ApplicationContext.xml
<jaxws:client id="vatClient"
serviceClass="nl.msw.compraventa.service.CheckVatService"
address="http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/services/checkVatService";
wsdlLocation="http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatService.wsdl";
xmlns:ns="urn:ec.europa.eu:taxud:vies:services:checkVat"
name="ns:checkVatService"
endpointName="ns:checkVatPort"
serviceName="ns:checkVatService"
/>
I'm getting this error on the vatNumber field when Spring tries to set
the CheckVatService as a dependency on another bean. No clue why. The
error message is not particularly helpful either. Don't see any
difference between the countryCode field that passes correctly and the
vatNumber field that fails. But then, I'm a newbie at this. A frustrated
one.

Any ideas?
