> The Java2WSDL class defines the following method to find the namespace for a class:
>  public static StringBuffer namespaceFromClassName(String className , ClassLoader classLoader) throws Exception
>  {
>     	return namespaceFromPackageName(Class.forName(className, true, classLoader).getPackage().getName());
>  }
> Unfortunately, Class.getPackage() may return null when:
> 1. the package for a class does not exist (ie. a top level class) 
> 2. where the package has not been loaded. 
> Suggestion:
> 1. Document that classes must reside in a package, or define a default namespace to be assigned to top level classes
> 2. Add an alternate mechanism of determining the package of a class (see below)
>     public static StringBuffer namespaceFromClassName(String className , ClassLoader classLoader) throws Exception
>     {
>         Class clazz = Class.forName(className, true, classLoader);
>         Package pkg = clazz.getPackage();
>         String name;
>         if (pkg != null)
>             name = pkg.getName();
>         else
>             name = packageNameFromClass(clazz.getName());
>         return namespaceFromPackageName(name);
>     }
>     protected static String packageNameFromClass(String name)
>     {
>         String ret = new String();
>         int lastDot = name.lastIndexOf ('.');
>         if (lastDot != -1)
>              ret = name.substring(lastDot + 1);
>         
>         return ret;
>     }
