Thanks Sergei,
It is possible for them to do it but with a little bit of coding
required on their side (Not as easy as a SOAP webservice).
We won't have time to try your recommended suggestion, sounds like
quite an involved bit of work:)
That is actually not that difficult :-), but I've just realized that
there's a much simpler option available,
jaxrs:server/@docLocation can reference documents such as WADLs, but
nothing blocks it from referencing an existing WSDL doc, the only
problem is that it is still a WADLGenerator which will serve this
document, so a .NET code would need to use a query like this:
"someaddress?_wadl" which can be easily changed to say
"someaddress?wsdl" with a "wsdl" query changed to a "_wadl" on the
server side in the custom cxf interceptor
Cheers, Sergey

Hi
We have a partner running .NET, who is trying to integrate with our
REST-ful cxf web services. Their toolset can consume WSDL only and not
WADL.
Is it WSDL 2.0 that their toolset supports ?
Can someone recommend the easiest way for them to integrate with us?
Perhaps the simplest option in this case is to transform a generated WADL
into a corresponding WSDL2 document.
Right now, it's not possible to use XSLTJaxbProvider in combination with
WADLGenerator which would only require registering a stylesheet which can do
the transformation, CXF may even ship such a stylesheet.
So a bit more work is needed at the moment, you'd need to explicitly
register a WADLGenerator (as a jaxrs:provider), set an
"ignoreMessageWriters" property on it to false, and also register a custom
MessageBodyWriter<String> implementation with
@Produces(WADLGenerator.WADL_TYPE). This provider will then use a custom
stylesheet to transform a string wadl representation into WSDL 2.0 doc, a
generic stylesheet may become quite involved but the one optimized to handle
an individual WADL doc will be simple enough
Hope it helps, Sergey
