How does WSDL get generated when publishign a Java based WS?

[vatsanm]

When migrating from Jboss 4.2.2 to Jboss 7.1.0 (or 7.1.1), it seems that the way the WSDl is generated on demand when you publish a Java based WS (bottom-up approach) has changed.  The exact same WS in JB4.2.x created a WSDL which was accepted when you build WS clients.  But when the same code was published under JB7.1.0, I see errors in the WSDL based on the tag heirachy/position in the WSDL. By ths I mean the referenced tag is coming 1st as cmpared to the tag definition and thus it cases an WSDL error.

Has anyone else seen it and how to resolve this issue?

The migration from JBoss 4.2.2 to 7.1.x is quite a long jump ;-)

Anyway, please provide more info on the "error" you're seeing, it's not clear from your sentences above. Consider posting an example.

I have a WS that was created under JB4.2.2 that is running as expcted.  Below is the error that I get when publishing the same exact code base under JB-7.1.0.  The WS is created as a SOAP document style. The Web method tahes classes (JAXB generated from xsd).  If I query for teh wsdl 9lik e- http://localhost//myservice/ias?wsdl ) I get the WSDl generated by JB (or JAX-WS) and as an example, calculateTaxType is used prior to its declraration in teh WSDL type.  I think thats the cause of the issue below of not finding tags.

I fixed teh issues for teh error above. They were caued by duplicate XM tags with the same namespace.  But I still want to understand the sequence of how Jboss creates WSDL requests when teh design approach s bottom up (WSDL is not created ahread o ftime).  In logs I see that JB creates WSDL from the WS definition, but I would like to understand the sequence.

It's some kind of reflection algorithm. See org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder package.

Basically, look for classes annotated with @WebService.

Scan for functions annotated with @WebMethod

etc

Thx spyhunter99.  i will take a look at the package.
