Re: [jira] Commented: (CXF-1509) Ant tasks don't support all the options of their corresponding commands

Well, as you've noticed, I went and took the few simple steps needed to dust
off, deliver, and document the ant-tasks as we have them.
I think we should move this to the list to see if anyone else is posessed of
an opinion.

---------------------------------
I don't think you need to worry about this, for the simple reason that I don't think we really need to have Ant tasks anyway. The <java/> task guarantees a 100% mapping between the wsdl2java options and what you can do with Ant (See step #5, GenerateCXFWrapper, of here[1]). In addition, it guarantees by definition identical option values between the command-line and the ant-version ([2]), and hence no additional documentation is necessary for us to maintain or for users to read.
As for, "using Ant <java/> is more difficult than us providing our own Ant wrapper", true, but you don't have to worry about that either, because the IQ needed to work intelligently with web services is much, much higher than the IQ needed to understand the Ant <java/> task. So you don't have to worry about people being able to do the former but not the latter, because such people don't exist. (Such a concern would be tantamount to worrying that a calculus book is missing a multiplication table on the inside front cover.)
Finally, the % of people using Ant is decreasing compared to Maven, Eclipse, and Command Line--I think Ant users can chug along quite happily with the <java/> task. FWIW, personally speaking, I would prefer the <java/> task over our own anyway, because I know its options are identical to the command-line ones--i.e., I would have nothing extra to read.
