java2java in mvn

[Benson Margulies <bi...@gmail.com>]

Dan,

I want to set up java2wsdl2java in systest to try out some Aegis/JAX
interoperation. Can you give my any sort of a headstart, or should I flail?
Since the Aegis classes have to be compiled to run java2ws, and the we need
to compile some more to get the results compiled, I'm somewhat out of my
depth.

Yea, this is a complicated scenarios that Maven really doesn't allow.   
It really just allows a single compile step for sources and a single 
compile step for tests.   Not multiple.

That said, in systests, you COULD potentially "fake" it since the whole 
thing really is a test module.   You could put the services themselves 
in src/main/java.   They would be compiled in the source compile step.   
Then, generate the wsdl and then the new services in the 
generate-test-sources phase (runs after the src compile phase) which 
would then generate the required stuff for tests.
