Many thanks.
I was thinking about removing dependencies on with package from cxf but
it seemed cumbersome (and not beautiful at all).
I did not think about your solution which looks better.
I'll try and let you informed.

Hi,
We've got a problem using CXF in our project since it uses the wsdl4j
library. This library is under the CPL licence which is not compatible
with our project licence (GPL).
One solution is to replace this lib with either groovysoap-all.jar or
axis-wsdl4j.jar (ASL licence compatible with GPLv3).
It works fine with our implementation using Axis2 (that normally uses
wsdl4j too) but it doesn't with CXF since it needs
classes of the javax.wsdl.extensions.soap12 package.
Is there a way to use CXF (to programmatically expose and consume
services) without using javax.wsdl.extensions.soap12 ?
Have you already faced this licence issue and found a better solution ?
Nope. Never faced this issue before. My best suggestion would be to take
the source code for axis-wsdl4j.jar and copy/rename the classes in
javax.wsdl.extensions.soap into javax.wsdl.extensions.soap12 and build a new
jar with just the new javax.wsdl.extensions.soap12 classes in it. That MAY
allow use with CXF as long as you don't actually use soap12 anywhere. The
interfaces would then at least exist, just no implementation. But that may
be OK.
