Getting JAX-WS to generate code with parameters that have namespaces?

Question

I have a WSDL and I have gotten wsimport to generate good code for it. And the code runs. And the "hello" operation (with no parameters) does just fine.

But now I am calling a "CreateSomething" operation. My server code is complaining that no parameters are being sent in the request. But I log it out in my server code and I see it right there....

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <S:Body>
    <ns2:ABCDEFGRequest
      xmlns:ns2="http://ray.com:55555/cgi-bin/WebObjects/App.woa/wa/abcsoap">
      <AAA>999</AAA>
      <BBB>Dept 999</BBB>
      <CCC>Dept 999 password</CCC>
      <DDD>abcNextTest</DDD>
    </ns2:ABCDEFGRequest>
  </S:Body>
</S:Envelope>

Hey, that looks fine to me! So, what up? And when I manually create a request, that works.

So, the problem is that

      <AAA>999</AAA>

should be

      <ns2:AAA>999</ns2:AAA>

But of course I am not creating the request. The JAX-WS-generated code is. So, how do I tell it that the parameter needs to be in the namespace also? This seems kind of basic.

The slice of my WSDL that contains this operation is below.

Answer 1

Wow. Apache is really good at putting out lots of documentation. Lots. So, here I am, eyes bleeding, having read through a bunch of the JAX-WS alphabet soup and the answer was very simple.

I found this by checking out the source for JAX-WS. Really. And in there I found:

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/axis/axis2/java/core/trunk/
modules/samples/wsdl/perf.wsdl

And so I see that I need to go to the top of my WSDL and change:

    <xsd:schema
         xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
         targetNamespace="http://__HOST__/cgi-bin/WebObjects/__APP__.woa/wa/abcsoap">

to:

    <xsd:schema
         elementFormDefault="qualified"
         xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
         targetNamespace="http://__HOST__/cgi-bin/WebObjects/__APP__.woa/wa/abcsoap">

And that is all.

Wow. Given the behavior, this might be the default, yes? O well.
