Question about the JBoss CXF support

[bfitzpat]

Hi there...

I'm looking into using Eclipse's CXF support with the JBoss WS CXF implementation and have run into some interesting limitations with the tooling... That's led to some poking around in their code a bit to see why it doesn't recognize our CXF libraries correctly.

Can anybody tell me if one of the CXF jars that is distributed with our distribution includes this class: org.apache.cxf.tools.wsdlto.WSDLToJava

I found cxf-api.jar, which includes most of the org.apache.cxf classes, but that one's not in there.

Before you ask - yes, I think it's kind of odd they're using this particular class to get the version as well, but hey... It's running that class with a -v option to get some kind of a version (which seems to work from the Apache CXF distribution).

Thanks in advance for any help on this weirdness.

I think you want:  cxf-tools-wsdlto-core.jar

Right, that's indeed the jar with the WSDLToJava class and is pulled/included in jbossws-cxf.

On the reasons for using that, I think they rely on the fact that that class is able to report the version to users (it's part of the wsdl2java tooling).

Thanks guys. That's what I needed.
