> Need convenience methods in Interface API to flatten interface inheritence

> Key: WODEN-87

>
> We have a use case (from Axis2) for convenience methods on the
> org.apache.woden.wsdl20.Interface API for additional convenience methods that
> provide a flattened view on all interface child components - both those
> directly declared and any inherited ones. Existing methods like
> Interface.getInterfaceOperations and getInterfaceFaults return only the
> components declared directly within the Interface (this is correct per the
> description of those properties in the WSDL 2.0 spec). Currently the
> getExtendedInterfaces method must be used to 'drill down' to get inherited
> components. Cases like diamond inheritance must also be handled by the user
> to avoid duplicates. The proposed convenience methods make all this
> transparent to the user.
> The proposed new methods on Interface are:
> getAllInterfaceOperations
> getAllIntefaceFaults
> Some further consideration may be required about whether the existing
> behaviour of getInterfaceOperations and getInterfaceFaults if actually useful
> (ie. getting the declared components only). An alternative approach would be
> to add methods like getDeclaredInterfaceOperations and change the behaviou of
> getInterfaceOperations to return all operations - direclty declared and
> inherited.
