Chapter 44. Maven Tooling Reference
Chapter 44. Maven Tooling Reference 44.1. Plug-in Setup Abstract before you can use the Apache CXF plug-ins, you must first add the proper dependencies and repositories to your POM. Dependencies You need to add the following dependencies to your project's POM: the JAX-WS frontend the HTTP transport the Undertow transport 44.2. cxf-codegen-plugin Abstract Generates JAX-WS compliant Java code from a WSDL document Overview Basic example The following POM extract shows a simple example of how to configure the Maven cxf-codegen-plugin to process the myService.wsdl WSDL file: Basic configuration settings In the preceding example, you can customize the following configuration settings configuration/sourceRoot Specifies the directory where the generated Java files will be stored. Default is target/generated-sources/cxf . configuration/wsdlOptions/wsdlOption/wsdl Specifies the location of the WSDL file. Description The wsdl2java task takes a WSDL document and generates fully annotated Java code from which to implement a service. The WSDL document must have a valid portType element, but it does not need to contain a binding element or a service element. Using the optional arguments you can customize the generated code. WSDL options At least one wsdlOptions element is required to configure the plug-in. The wsdlOptions element's wsdl child is required and specifies a WSDL document to be processed by the plug-in. In addition to the wsdl element, the wsdlOptions element can take a number of children that can customize how the WSDL document is processed. More than one wsdlOptions element can be listed in the plug-in configuration. Each element configures a single WSDL document for processing. Default options The defaultOptions element is an optional element. It can be used to set options that are used across all of the specified WSDL documents. Important If an option is duplicated in the wsdlOptions element, the value in the wsdlOptions element takes precedent. Specifying code generation options To specify generic code generation options (corresponding to the switches supported by the Apache CXF wsdl2java command-line tool), you can add the extraargs element as a child of a wsdlOption element. For example, you can add the -impl option and the -verbose option as follows: If a switch takes arguments, you can specify these using subsequent extraarg elements. For example, to specify the jibx data binding, you can configure the plug-in as follows: Specifying binding files To specify the location of one or more JAX-WS binding files, you can add the bindingFiles element as a child of wsdlOption -for example: Generating code for a specific WSDL service To specify the name of the WSDL service for which code is to be generated, you can add the serviceName element as a child of wsdlOption (the default behaviour is to generate code for every service in the WSDL document)-for example: Generating code for multiple WSDL files To generate code for multiple WSDL files, simply insert additional wsdlOption elements for the WSDL files. If you want to specify some common options that apply to all of the WSDL files, put the common options into the defaultOptions element as shown: It is also possible to specify multiple WSDL files using wildcard matching. In this case, specify the directory containing the WSDL files using the wsdlRoot element and then select the required WSDL files using an include element, which supports wildcarding with the * character. For example, to select all of the WSDL files ending in Service.wsdl from the src/main/resources/wsdl root directory, you could configure the plug-in as follows: Downloading WSDL from a Maven repository To download a WSDL file directly from a Maven repository, add a wsdlArtifact element as a child of the wsdlOption element and specify the coordinates of the Maven artifact, as follows: Encoding (Requires JAXB 2.2) To specify the character encoding (Charset) used for the generated Java files, add an encoding element as a child of the configuration element, as follows: Forking a separate process You can configure the codegen plug-in to fork a separate JVM for code generation, by adding the fork element as a child of the configuration element. The fork element can be set to one of the following values: once Fork a single new JVM to process all of the WSDL files specified in the codegen plug-in's configuration. always Fork a new JVM to process each WSDL file specified in the codegen plug-in's configuration. false (Default) Disables forking. If the codegen plug-in is configured to fork a separate JVM (that is, the fork option is set to a non-false value), you can specify additional JVM arguments to the forked JVM through the additionalJvmArgs element. For example, the following fragment configures the codegen plug-in to fork a single JVM, which is restricted to access XML schemas from the local file system only (by setting the javax.xml.accessExternalSchema system property): Options reference The options used to manage the code generation process are reviewed in the following table. Option Interpretation -fe|-frontend frontend Specifies the front end used by the code generator. Possible values are jaxws , jaxws21 , and cxf . The jaxws21 frontend is used to generate JAX-WS 2.1 compliant code. The cxf frontend, which can optionally be used instead of the jaxws frontend, provides an extra constructor for Service classes. This constructor conveniently enables you to specify the Bus instance for configuring the service. Default is jaxws . -db|-databinding databinding Specifies the data binding used by the code generator. Possible values are: jaxb , xmlbeans , sdo ( sdo-static and sdo-dynamic ), and jibx . Default is jaxb . -wv wsdlVersion Specifies the WSDL version expected by the tool. Default is 1.1 . [a] -p wsdlNamespace = PackageName Specifies zero, or more, package names to use for the generated code. Optionally specifies the WSDL namespace to package name mapping. -b bindingName Specifies one or more JAXWS or JAXB binding files. Use a separate -b flag for each binding file. -sn serviceName Specifies the name of the WSDL service for which code is to be generated. The default is to generate code for every service in the WSDL document. -reserveClass classname Used with -autoNameResolution , defines a class names for wsdl-to-java not to use when generating classes. Use this option multiple times for multiple classes. -catalog catalogUrl Specifies the URL of an XML catalog to use for resolving imported schemas and WSDL documents. -d output-directory Specifies the directory into which the generated code files are written. -compile Compiles generated Java files. -classdir complile-class-dir Specifies the directory into which the compiled class files are written. -clientjar jar-file-name Generates the JAR file that contains all the client classes and the WSDL. The specified wsdlLocation does not work when this option is specified. -client Generates starting point code for a client mainline. -server Generates starting point code for a server mainline. -impl Generates starting point code for an implementation object. -all Generates all starting point code: types, service proxy, service interface, server mainline, client mainline, implementation object, and an Ant build.xml file. -ant Generates the Ant build.xml file. -autoNameResolution Automatically resolve naming conflicts without requiring the use of binding customizations. -defaultValues = DefaultValueProvider Instructs the tool to generate default values for the generated client and the generated implementation. Optionally, you can also supply the name of the class used to generate the default values. By default, the RandomValueProvider class is used. -nexclude schema-namespace = java-packagename Ignore the specified WSDL schema namespace when generating code. This option may be specified multiple times. Also, optionally specifies the Java package name used by types described in the excluded namespace(s). -exsh ( true / false ) Enables or disables processing of extended soap header message binding. Default is false. -noTypes Turns off generating types. -dns (true/false) Enables or disables the loading of the default namespace package name mapping. Default is true. -dex (true/false) Enables or disables the loading of the default excludes namespace mapping. Default is true. -xjc args Specifies a comma separated list of arguments to be passed to directly to the XJC when the JAXB data binding is being used. To get a list of all possible XJC arguments use the -xjc-X . -noAddressBinding Instructs the tool to use the Apache CXF proprietary WS-Addressing type instead of the JAX-WS 2.1 compliant mapping. -validate [=all|basic|none] Instructs the tool to validate the WSDL document before attempting to generate any code. -keep Instructs the tool to not overwrite any existing files. -wsdlLocation wsdlLocation Specifies the value of the @WebService annotation's wsdlLocation property. -v Displays the version number for the tool. -verbose|-V Displays comments during the code generation process. -quiet Suppresses comments during the code generation process. -allowElementReferences[=true] , -aer[=true] If true , disregards the rule given in section 2.3.1.2(v) of the JAX-WS 2.2 specification disallowing element references when using wrapper-style mapping. Default is false . -asyncMethods[= method1 , method2 ,... ] List of subsequently generated Java class methods to allow for client-side asynchronous calls; similar to enableAsyncMapping in a JAX-WS binding file. -bareMethods[= method1 , method2 ,... ] List of subsequently generated Java class methods to have wrapper style (see below), similar to enableWrapperStyle in JAX-WS binding file. -mimeMethods[= method1 , method2 ,... ] List of subsequently generated Java class methods to enable mime:content mapping, similar to enableMIMEContent in JAX-WS binding file. -faultSerialVersionUID fault-serialVersionUID How to generate suid of fault exceptions. Possible values are: NONE , TIMESTAMP , FQCN , or a specific number. Default is NONE . -encoding encoding Specifies the Charset encoding to use when generating Java code. -exceptionSuper Superclass for fault beans generated from wsdl:fault elements (defaults to java.lang.Exception ). -seiSuper interfaceName Specifies a base interface for the generated SEI interfaces. For example, this option can be used to add the Java 7 AutoCloseable interface as a super interface. -mark-generated Adds the @Generated annotation to the generated classes. [a] Currently, Apache CXF only provides WSDL 1.1 support for the code generator. 44.3. java2ws Abstract generates a WSDL document from Java code Synopsis Description The java2ws task takes a service endpoint implementation (SEI) and generates the support files used to implement a Web service. It can generate the following: a WSDL document the server code needed to deploy the service as a POJO client code for accessing the service wrapper and fault beans Required configuration The plug-in requires that the className configuration element is present. The element's value is the fully qualified name of the SEI to be processed. Optional configuration The configuration element's listed in the following table can be used to fine tune the WSDL generation. Element Description frontend Specifies front end to use for processing the SEI and generating the support classes. jaxws is the default. simple is also supported. databinding Specifies the data binding used for processing the SEI and generating the support classes. The default when using the JAX-WS front end is jaxb .
