Hi Dennis, WRT making Java2WSDL and WSDL2Java simpler, what is wrong with the Ant tasks in axis-ant.jar?
The whole process you describe can be automated with Ant. The toughest part (not that tough!) would be generating a transform to do step 4.

I helped a client go through this process a couple of weeks ago and found it worked pretty well once you knew what to modify along the way. I'd like to put together a tool to wrap Java2WSDL and WSDL2Java to make the process simpler, but don't know when I'll get to that. - Dennis Dennis M.
