Hi,
I'm brand new to CXF and am trying to create a client from WSDL. I have
used Metro and Axis in the past. I downloaded apache-cxf-2.3.3 and used
wsdl2java to generate the client stubs. I use Maven and set it up my
pom with this:
<properties>
<cxf.version>2.3.3</cxf.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws</artifactId>
<version>${cxf.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http</artifactId>
<version>${cxf.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-rt-ws-security</artifactId>
<version>${cxf.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<inherited>true</inherited>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.5</source>
<target>1.5</target>
<optimize>true</optimize>
<debug>true</debug>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
When I build the project, I get these errors:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.3.2:compile
(default-compile) on project client-cxf: Compilation failure:
Compilation failure:

and

Service(java.net.URL,javax.xml.namespace.QName,javax.xml.ws.WebServiceFe
ature[])
[ERROR] location: class javax.xml.ws.Service
The wsdl2java generated code producing the error is:
It appears that the problems are related to the fact that the generated
code uses Java 6 features ("require" element for XmlElementRef, new
constructors for Service) yet the CXF Maven dependencies are for Java 5.
Is there a way to specify that the generated code should be Java 5
compliant?
Thanks!
