jax-ws @WebParam "Required" annotation?

[mj1932 <mj...@hotmail.com>]

Im kinda a newb to using jax-ws annotations.  I have created a WebService
using jax-ws annotations that I'm exposing using CXF.  I have explicitly
marked it as DOC, LITERAL and all my java clients & SOAP-UI can use it fine. 
Unfortunately a FLEX client is having issues and I think it maybe because
the @WebParam shows up as "optional".  Is there an annotation to make a
@WebParam required?  I've looked around at Sun, IBM, and CXF sites regarding
annotations and haven't found anything defined for that via any of the
JAX-WS related JSRs.  Any advice to configure these as required would be
appreciated.  Also if anyone can recommend any other resources to solicit
about this, it would be appreciated.  Thanks.

By "optional", I assume you mean the minOccurs="0" we put in the wsdl.  
Correct?

If so, this is technically a spec compliant thing.   Any non-primitives 
are optional. Only primitives are required.

With 2.1.2 and earlier, the ONLY way to control this would be to run a 
java2ws -wsdl or similar to get the wsdl/schema and then modify the wsdl 
and convert your config to have it use the modified wsdl.

With 2.1.3, you will be able to write a ServiceConfiguration object that 
can override the getWrapperPartMinOccurs method to return 1 instead of 
0.  You can try the 2.1.3 snapshots if you want to play with that.
