Array Of Unbound Types
I am trying to use CXF which is an implementation of JAX-WS and use the JAXB
framework for binding. I my WDSL i have defined a number of complex types
that are "ArrayOf<Types>". For e.g.
<xs:complexType name="ArrayOfString">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<jaxb roperty collectionType="indexed"/>
</xs:appinfo>
<xs ocumentation>An object for holding a String array.</xs ocumentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="String"
type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
In Axis 1.4, this "ArrayOfString" type gets mapped to String []. However
when i use CXF it generates an ArrayOfString class that consists of a member
List<String> accessible through getter methods.
I would however like to map ArrayOfTypes to Type [] or List<Type>. I read
some of the documentation and it was suggested that i use the <jaxb roperty
collectionType="indexed"/> when defining the complex type. But this does NOT
help. The WSDL2Java still generates a ArrayOfType class.
Can someone please help me out?

Well, I can clarify this one.... CXF can definitely handle this.
This is actually how it's done internally. The JAXB binding files
are merged into DOM versions of the WSDL/schema before calling off to
xjc. Thus, stuff that is in the xsd should be picked up fine.

Can you post an entire WSDL? I'm wondering if you have the jaxb
namespace turned on, and a few other things.
I am not 100% confident that CXF will handle jaxb annotations in the
WSDL, as opposed to making a separate JAXB binding file.

I am sorry, that there was a typo. The XML fragment actually looks like this:
<xs:complexType name="ArrayOfString">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<jaxb:property collectionType="indexed" />
</xs:appinfo>
<xs:documentation>An object for holding a String
array.</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element form="qualified" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="String"
type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
"<jaxb:property collectionType="indexed" /> " was not in the documentation.

I don't think so. This is a JAXB specification thing and not
something CXF really has any control over. We delegate the jaxb
databinding stuff directly to the JAXB RI from sun. We don't do any
processing at that level. It's all them. I did some searches on
the JAXB forum and didn't see anything there as well. You would need
to address any questions about the jaxb databinding mappings to them.

To clarify:
The original WSDL is at http://geog.tamu.edu/~rahul/XML/GPServer_1.xml.
The one that i had modified to make solve the problem, by promoting the
ArrayOfString type to an unbound string is at
http://geog.tamu.edu/~rahul/XML/GPServer.xml.
I am posting both, as some had questions on whether i had included the jaxb
namespace correctly.
I have solved this problem, but i was wondering if this could be done
without modifying the wsdl?

Re: Array Of Unbound Types

I understand that one of the ways of solving this problem is to promote the
"ArrayOfString" to an unbound "xs:string". But one of the restrictions of
this project, is that i must NOT change the WSDL. Is there any other way
that i can solve this problem?
The WSDL is located at: http://geog.tamu.edu/~rahul/XML/GPServer.xml

Re: Array Of Unbound Types
Posted by Daniel Kulp <dk...@apache.org>.
As Benson mentioned, seeing the whole wsdl would be a help.
What CXF is doing it completely per JAXB specifications. Thus, it's
behavior is "correct".
The "indexed" jaxb extension changes the way the getter/setter methods
are generated on the beans. Instead of just a "List<..> getFoo()"
method, it would generate get(int idx), set(int idx, object o),
etc.... methods to allow indexed style behavior. It would NOT change
this situation as the ArrayOfString bean would still be created, just
the methods to access the list are changed.
The "proper" schema way to do this is to promote the maxOccurs
unbounded and the type up to the place to where you are referring to
the ArrayOfString type. Seeing the full wsdl would be a big help for
this.
