<axis-wsdl2java>
The build file snippet I use to do this does the following
1. check that the source is up to date w.r.t the .WSDL file
2. create the soap api in build/axis/generated/ package tree
3. copy some (but not all) of the generated stuff to build/axis/src. I strip
out the bits I dont want.
My IDE and main <javac> task includes build/axis/src in the list of files to
compile, and depends on the "soapapi" target.
The hard part is now that WSDL is butt-ugly.
