hi,

why do you think that code generation is required?

AFAIK there would be no code generation but just converting in AXIS provider form WSIFTypeDesc (or something like that) into AXIS TypeDesc?

that would allow other WSIF providers to do do similar things: declare mappings in provider specific way based on WSIFTypeDesc. we already have WSIFService.mapType()/WSIFDynamicTypeMap and we may just need to take it one step further and allow more fins grained mapping control?

thanks,

alek

A while ago a user reported a problem with WSIF using the AXIS bean
serializer when the schema used names which start with a capital letter:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=104203857924370&w=2.

I raised an AXIS bugzilla about it:

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16485

which has now been closed as working as designed. I guess Glen is right in
what he says about the reasons for closing this, but as the original user
pointed out, it seems wrong for WSIF to be dependent on the AXIS specific
TypeDesc info:


I would have expected WSIF not to be AXIS dependant for the complex
type mapping, as it makes the client code dependant upon the chosen
binding. From the code - but I'm really new to WSIF so there may be
better ways - it seemed to me that the AXIS provider would have to
generate the TypeDesc at runtime (i.e., doing WSDL2Java job) and
use it to create the proper BeanDeserializers.

I'm not sure how easy it would be for WSIF to generate the TypeDesc on the
fly. What does anyone else think about this?
