There are some WSI-BP rules that it does check for and various wsdl spec things it checks for. Most of the checks have been added in response to various users issues over the years. Things like strange exceptions or incorrect generated code or something that were results of bad wsdl. We would add a check that throws a better error message. -- Daniel Kulp dk...@apache.org http://dankulp.com/blog
