Duncan Jauncey commented on XFIRE-1087:
---------------------------------------
+1: I've spent nearly a day trying to get this to work & still no luck. I
feel I'm missing something straightforward, where a little extra information
would save everyone hours of trouble.
Constructive criticism of the documentation:
* Section 1 - presumably refers to the service that will be passing and/or
returning your custom type? Not completely transparent to a new user.
* Section 2 - writeObject - could do with an example here. Should it be
writing "<mytype>", then some xml representation, then "</mytype>", or is that
handled for us?
* Section 2 - readObject - where does the read() method come from? Do you
need an XMLStreamReader when MessageReader appears to suffice?
* Section 2 - writeSchema - is this method optional? What could it look like
for a simple object wrapping a Long?
* Section 3 - where and when should this code be executed? In the client,
before calling a service, or is there some XFire initialization method into
which it should hook? Should it be executed in the service, or does the
subsequent entry in services.xml do that for us?
* Configuration via services.xml - presumably this is mandatory? When I try
this, I get "Allocate exception for servlet XFireServlet
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Error
registering bean with name 'TypeRegistrar' defined in class path resource" -
with the same code as the example. I'm suspecting that my XYZType class needs
to be available to the client as well as the service, if so could the
documentation make this clear?
I appreciate that CXF is the new way forward, but there are still a lot of us
out there that have to use XFire for the foreseeable future and just a few
pointers might save us all a heap of trouble. Thanks!
