Hello All-

Any suggestions where to locate the axis-ant-plugin jar?

sorry, I was confusing. There is a bit in the axis2 source tree called 
axis-ant-plugin, but I think it creates the ant-codegen.jar file

try doing a a taskdef with the task name of 
org.apache.axis2.tool.ant.AntCodegenTask

To change subject slightly, while I am pleased to see that you are 
following the path-of-righteousness by going from WSDL to Java, what 
gets generated, on all SOAP stacks, has a tendency to be pretty 
unpleasant. This is why I'm no longer an active Axis 
developer/committer; I got fed up with all the interop problems.

I'm more of an advocate of living in the XML space:
http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/2005/HPL-2005-83.html

While I'm not going to recommend my own 'alpine' SOAP stack, XFire has a 
pretty good reputation and does appear to be ready for production use.
