Glen Mazza commented on CXF-928:
--------------------------------
I'm inclined to disagree. I just checked that Glassfish Metro also overwrites
each time, like CXF. Not only that, AFAICT Metro does not even provide an
command-line option for their <wsimport/>[1] to *not* overwrite (and neither
does CXF[2]). (Note Metro's "keep" switch does not mean "don't overwrite" --
it refers to retaining the .java files as Metro normally just provides the
compiled .class files without the java.)
If it were the case that there is significant demand to *not* overwrite each
time, would not Metro (or CXF) at least have a command line option by now to
not overwrite? But to jump from "not even having an option to not overwrite"
to "making not overwrite the default" is too big a leap IMHO.
