WSDLFlattener

["Sloan, John L (John)" <js...@avaya.com>]

SM-479 and SM-511 inspired me to look at WSDLFlattener
in servicemix-common to solve some of our WSDL and XSD
issues. So far so good with the first two WSDLs I tried.

Then I tried to flatten a WSDL that, while it does import
an XSD, it also has embedded XSD, e.g.

<wsdl:types>
 <xsd:schema>
  <xsd:element ... >

instead of importing all of its XSDs as with the prior
two WSDLs. [Walmsley] and [WSDL 1.1] seems to think this
is okay (at least, [WSDL 1.1] has it in an example). And
the problem could be still in the WSDL and I just haven't
found it yet. But using the Eclipse debugging to step
through WSDLFlattener, it seems to do

	Schema schema = schemas.getSchema(elemName.getNamespaceURI());

and throws a NPE when schema comes back null. Indeed, the
embedded schema identified in the elemName isn't in the
schemas HashMap. The contents of schemas appears to be
built only from imported schemas.

I'm hoping this is pilot error on my part with the
WSDL, but still staring at it until my eyes bleed.

Anyone have a known working example of embedded a schema
inside a WSDL and running WSDLFlattener on it?

Thanks.

John, can you post the XSD so that I can try to debug the issue?
