If my memory serves me right it is JAX-RPC (which Axis implements) that do
not define any java mapping for the XML xsd:anyType type. I simply avoided
using it.
May I ask what is the purpose of extending xsd:anyType? If you need an
abstract layer maybe you should do something like:
<xs:complexType name="baseClass">
<xs:all/>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="concreteType">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="tns:baseClass">
<xs:all>
<xs:element name="value" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:all>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
Sylvain.

Subject: FW: Derivation from anyType
Previously posted, but unanswered:
In my WSDL I have types that are derived from anyType. By changing the
derivation from anyType from by extension to by restriction, my Java code
generated by WSDL2Java has no getters/setters, resulting in compilation
errors in my client code.
Apparently DevStudio.NET won't take the WSDLs if derivation from anyType is
by extension.
Axis won't generate correct code if the WSDLs if derivation from anyType by
restriction is used.
In my mind, deriving from anyType by restriction doesn't make sense anyway.
Regardless, is Axis' behavior correct in this case? I will email my WSDL
upon request.
e.g.
<complexType name="AltLink">
<complexContent>
<extension base="xsd:anyType">
<sequence>
<element name="prev" type="ts:stringData" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="1"/>
<element name="next" type="ts:stringData" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="1"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
FYI, this schema is generated by gSOAP using <restriction> instead of
<extension>.
cheers,
Simon
