I have a JAX WS Web service in java, and I change it from type Document to RPC with the following line:
@SOAPBinding(style = Style.RPC)
The problem is when I try to use wsgen.exe (version 2.2.9) from JDK 1.8.0_91:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_91\bin\wsgen.exe" -verbose -cp . com.ws.ServiceImpl -wsdl -inlineSchemas
The WSDL generated for the method insertDevolutions is the following:
<xs:schema version="1.0" targetNamespace="..." xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:complexType name="arrayList">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="tns:abstractList">
<xs:sequence/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="abstractList" abstract="true">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="tns:abstractCollection">
<xs:sequence/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="abstractCollection" abstract="true">
<xs:sequence/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
...
<message name="insertDevolutions">
<part name="arg0" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="arg1" type="tns:arrayList"/>
<part name="arg2" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="arg3" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="arg4" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="arg5" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="arg6" type="xsd:boolean"/>
</message>
But the WSDL generated by the service with the URL http://localhost:8080/TestWS/ServiceImpl?wsdl is totally different because the object devolution is generated correctly:
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:tns="..." attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="unqualified" targetNamespace="...">
<xs:complexType name="devolution">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="company" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="currency" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="registerDate" type="xs:dateTime"/>>
<xs:element name="total" type="xs:double"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType final="#all" name="devolutionArray">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="item" nillable="true" type="tns:devolution"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
...
<wsdl:message name="insertDevolutions">
<wsdl:part name="arg0" type="xsd:string"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg1" type="tns:devolutionArray"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg2" type="xsd:string"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg3" type="xsd:string"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg4" type="xsd:string"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg5" type="xsd:string"/>
<wsdl:part name="arg6" type="xsd:boolean"/>
</wsdl:message>
So I want to know how is the WSDL with wsdl option in the URL generated because I thought JAX WS uses the same tool as wsgen. Is there another tool that generates the WSDL like the one provided by the service?
Finally I found that the WSDL was generated with CXF, because the tool wsgen uses the default JAXB implementation and this one does not convert interfaces like List<>
and the classes like ArrayList<>
are converted like I mentioned before in the following way:
<xs:complexType name="arrayList">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="tns:abstractList">
<xs:sequence/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
So when I use the tools provided by CXF with the follwing command:
"C:\apache-cxf-3.1.6\bin\java2ws" -wsdl -d . com.ws.ServiceImpl
The WSDL with RPC
style is generated correctly.
