CXF Gurus,
I use JavaToWS to generate the WSDL on my development box. After migrating
to 2.4.3 (from 2.4.1) I noticed that the WSDL being generated is slightly
different (uses references). And any clients generated using wsdl2java, on
that WSDL do not work. This issue is easily reproducible.
The data object in question is, lets say, a Widget, and the SOAP API call
is getWidget(). Here is what Widget looks like:
<code>
@XmlRootElement(name = "Widget")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.PROPERTY)
@XmlType(name = "Widget")
public class Widget {
private FOO foo;
private Bar bar;
public FOO getFOO() {
return foo;
}
public void setFOO(FOO foo) {
this.foo = foo;
}
public Bar getBar() {
return bar;
}
public void setBar(Bar bar) {
this.bar = bar;
}
}
</code>
The WSDL generated by JavaToWS looks like this:
<wsdl>
<xs:complexType name="Widget">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="bar" type="tns:Bar"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" ref="tns:FOO"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</wsdl>
Notice how bar is explicitly listed inline, but FOO is referred to via a
reference. In CXF 2.4.1, both of these elements would be explicitly listed
inline.
And the generated code using wsdl2java looks like this:
<code>
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "Widget", propOrder = { "bar", "foo" })
public class Widget {
protected Bar bar;
@XmlElement(name = "FOO", namespace = "http://example.com/")
protected FOO foo;
<SNIP>
}
</code>
Notice, that FOO is explicitly marked to be in a namespace in the generated
code, and bar is in no explicit namespace.
Now, when we call the getWidget() on the web service, we get back:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<ns2:getWidgetResponse xmlns:ns2="http://example.com/">
<return>
<bar>
<intBar>7</intBar>
</bar>
<FOO>
<fooInt>99</fooInt>
</FOO>
</return>
</ns2:getWidgetResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
And CXF throws the exception:
org.apache.cxf.phase.PhaseInterceptorChain doDefaultLogging
WARNING: Interceptor for {
http://example.com/}FooWebService#{http://example.com/}getWidget has thrown
exception, unwinding now
org.apache.cxf.interceptor.Fault: Unmarshalling Error: unexpected element
(uri:"", local:"FOO"). Expected elements are <{http://example.com/}FOO>,<{}bar>
The CXF client is expecting FOO to be in the namespace http://example.com,
but JAXB does not namespace elements. Hence the exception. bar is
unmarshalled just fine. Now this worked fine in when we used JavaToWS in
2.4.1 and is broke now. Any thoughts? Do I need to file a bug?
