wsdl2js not handling complexType with simpleContent

[Andrew Cleasby]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a Javascript client for a service using wsdl2js.  
One of the complex types contains simple content that has a value and an 
attribute.  When I generate bindings with wsdl2js this type is 
completely ignored, and I can see from looking at the code in 
org.apache.cxf.javascript.JavascriptUtils#notVeryComplexType that this 
is intentional.  This is preventing me from using the JS bindings for 
this service.

Here's the fragment of the wsdl with the type I'm referring to:

   <complexType name="ManagedObjectReference">
      <simpleContent>
         <extension base="xsd:string">
            <attribute name="type" type="xsd:string"/>
         </extension>
      </simpleContent>
   </complexType>


Can anyone shed light on why this is the case?  How much work might it 
take to modify the JS generator to handle this type correctly?


Thanks,

Andrew
