I like the name WSDL2Code. I would also love to have a WSDL2Java wrapper class.
I don't expect that the common use case to be from the IDE - We use WSDL2Java via the API (make sure that is fully functional!) and I use it from ant and the command line. -- Tom Jordahl Macromedia Server Development > -----Original Message----- > From: Glen Daniels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2005 8:25 AM > To: axis-dev@ws.apache.org > Subject: Re: [Axis2] WSDL2Java renamed? > > > Axis1 does have the "generic" WSDL2 classes and the more specific Java > ones, > and was in fact designed with exactly the same idea (generating > stubs/skels > for multiple languages).
