RE: Using axis ant task with typed enums

[Ulrich Ackermann <ul...@web.de>]

Hi,

I tried to follow Paul's advice, but the results weren't as expected: I had no entries of my EnumTest class in the WSDL and WSDD files.
My class looked as follows:

public class EnumTest implements Serializable {
	private String value = null;
	// Constructor
	protected EnumTest(String value) {
		this.value = value;
	}
	public static final EnumTest TEST_1 = new EnumTest("test1");

	public String getValue() { return this.value; }

	public static EnumTest fromValue(String value) { return null;  }

	public static EnumTest fromString(String value){ return null;	}
	
	public String toString() { return this.value; }
	
	public boolean equals(Object obj) {
		if (obj == null) {
			return false;
		}
		return this.value.equals(obj.toString());
	}
	
	public int hashCode() { return this.value.hashCode(); }
}

It seems that I am still missing the idea :-/

Regards,
Ulrich

Or you can read in the jax-rpc spec 1.1 on how to write the java 1.4 enums in such a way that the axis engine will generate an enum that anne gave an example for...

mainly the following:
//Java
public class <enumeration_name> {
// ...
// Constructor
protected <enumeration_name>(<base_type> value) { ... }
// One for each label in the enumeration
public static final <base_type> _<label> = <value>;
public static final <enumeration_name> <label> =
new <enumeration_name>(_<label>);
// Gets the value for a enumerated value
public <base_type> getValue() {...}
// Gets enumeration with a specific value
// Required to throw java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if
// any invalid value is specified
public static <enumeration_name> fromValue(<base_type> value) {
... }
// Gets enumeration from a String
// Required to throw java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if
// any invalid value is specified
public static <enumeration_name> fromString(String value){ ... }
// Returns String representation of the enumerated value
public String toString() { ... }
public boolean equals(Object obj) { ... }
public int hashCode() { ... }
}
