XInclude supported?

Dear colleagues,

I have a WSDL 1.1 file with a complex set of imports and xincludes.
Does Woden support validation of such files? If so, can anyone point
me to the right direction.

Note that I pasted a similar question to the Eclipse WTP newsgroup
<news:eclipse.webtools>
today. Does Eclipse WTP use woden?

Thanks for your help.

Farrukh,

Woden uses Xerces for XSD parsing. FYI, XSD Validation is an important part
of WSDL 2.0 Validation. Xerces supports <xs:include>.

For WSDL 1.1 validation, I recommend using WTP which includes command line
access to validation via the WS-I Test Tools. However, I have no direct
experience with the use of XInclude with WSDL 1.1. If you hit problems, I
suggest doing a pre-processing pass to resolve the XIncludes. Maybe you
could do that via a "copy" XSLT? I do that to resolve XML entities.

Thanks Arthur for the helpful response. I assume XInclude support is
really in the XML Parser. If it is xerces-j as previous messages imply
then xerces-j already support xinclude feature according to:

<http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.webtools/msg10048.html>

On a related note, what XML Schema parser does Woden use and does that
XMl Schema Parser support <xs:include> (which is not same as <xi:xinclude>).

Again, my bottom-line need is to find the best WSDL 1.1 validator that
supports use of <xi:include> and <xs:include>. I am really hoping that
somehow woden can come to the rescue soon assuming the underlying
libraries such as xerces-j and xmlschema support <xi:include> and
<xs:include> respectively. Any guidance on what I can expect?

Thanks again for your help.

Farrukn,

There has been some recent work to integrate Axis2 into WTP so that would 
bring in Woden. The WTP WSDL editor has not been updated to WSDL 2.0 yet.

XInclude is not supported in WSDL 1.1 or WSDL 2.0. You should use the 
<import> and <include> elements.
