About jaxrpc-mapping.xml...

[paoletto]

I have an ejb3 slsb exposed as web service using jsr181.

Now: i'd like to use Dinamic invocation interface because it's possible that some clients dont have the endpoint interface.

I get

org.jboss.ws.WSException: Cannot obtain java type mapping for: {http://jaxb.dev.java.net/array}stringArray

because there is probably a mismatch in namespace for some obscure reasons.

I'm not using a jaxrpc-mapping.xml

My question is: to generate it i have to use some tools (like wstools or wsconsume) applied to the wsdl, and then give to my application.
But - just wondering- why this?

why dont just provide some interface to auto generate it?
If i want to use some other web services i have only the wsdl for, why should i generate the mapping BEFORE, and then give to my application?
why cant this process be automatic?

It's not clear whether you're having problems with the server or client; I assume server is fine and your concern is about the client, since you talk about dynamic invocation.
I suggest you to forget about jaxrpc-mapping and JAX-RPC in general and switch to JAX-WS, everything is simpler.
You can either generate the client with ws-consume (you only need the wsdl service contract) or use Dispatch (http://jbws.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=JAX-WS_User_Guide#Dispatch) working at message level.

the problem is that i have a stack of server, each one with the same service exposed, so i was thinking about DII because it's easier to dinamically
specify wsdl url and service name.

If i generate the client with wsconsume, then can i dinamically change the address and connect to the same service on a different machine?
