             Summary: Bottom-up SOAP Services with Apache CXF and Custom XSD
                 Key: CXF-7813
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-7813
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: JAX-WS Runtime
    Affects Versions: 3.2.5
            Reporter: Maciej Miklas


I would be nice to have possibility to provide custom XSD while generating WSDL from Java Code.
The idea is to write XSD that defines simple types, reference those types in transfer objects, and on the end generate WSLD which combines it all.

I've implemented [here|https://github.com/maciejmiklas/apache-cxf-soap/tree/master/src/main/java/org/ast/apachecxfsoap/extended] small extension for CXF. 
Some fields in transfer objects are annotated with _@XmlSchemaType_ - this annotation provides connection between Java types and types defined in XSD. For example _ExRegistration#email_ is annotated with _@XmlSchemaType(name = "email")_, XSD contains email type, and finally _email_ in generated in WSDL references type from provided Schema.

This extension has some limitations, so the final solution would have to work in some other way, but I would like to know Your opinion such future in general. We are using it in production and it works really well. On the end we do not have to write WSDL by hand, and we can still precisely specify format for transfer objects.
