I am trying to consume a WSDL using wsconsume from JBossWS-3.1.2.GA, but I am unable to do so, if a wsdl:message/wsdl:part node defines a "type" instead of an "element". The error I get is: [wsconsume] Command invoked: org.jboss.wsf.spi.tools.cmd.WSConsume -k -o generated\classes -s generated\src -v wsdl.wsdl | [wsconsume] parsing WSDL... | [wsconsume] [ERROR] Invalid header "SoapHeader" in operation Operation: part must specify a "element" attribute | [wsconsume] line 40 of file:/wsdl.wsdl Please find the WSDL below. Please note it is a perfectly legal WSDL as per W3C http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_message, and relative XSD, and that other JAX-WS implementations (CXF) consume the WSDL correctly. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <definitions name="wsdl" targetNamespace="http://localhost/service/" | xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" xmlns:tns="http://localhost/service/" | xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"> | | <types> | <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" | targetNamespace="http://localhost/service/"> | <element name="OperationRequest"> | <complexType> | <sequence> | <element name="request" type="string"></element> | </sequence> | </complexType> | </element> | <element name="OperationResponse"> | <complexType> | <sequence> | <element name="response" type="string"></element> | </sequence> | </complexType> | </element> | <element name="SoapHeader"> | <complexType> | <sequence> | <element name="transactionID" type="string" /> | </sequence> | </complexType> | </element> | </schema> | </types> | | <message name="OperationRequest"> | <part name="parameters" element="tns:OperationRequest"></part> | </message> | <message name="OperationResponse"> | <part name="parameters" element="tns:OperationResponse"></part> | </message> | <message name="SoapHeader"> | <part name="SoapHeader" type="tns:SoapHeader" /> | </message> | | <portType name="ServicePort"> | <operation name="Operation"> | <input name="operationRequest" message="tns:OperationRequest" /> | <output name="operationResponse" message="tns:OperationResponse" /> | </operation> | </portType> | | <binding name="Binding" type="tns:ServicePort"> | <soap:binding style="document" | transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http" /> | <operation name="Operation"> | <soap:operation soapAction="http://localhost/service/Operation" /> | <input name="operationRequest"> | <soap:body use="literal" /> | <soap:header message="tns:SoapHeader" part="SoapHeader" | use="literal" /> | </input> | <output name="operationResponse"> | <soap:body use="literal" /> | <soap:header message="tns:SoapHeader" part="SoapHeader" | use="literal" /> | </output> | </operation> | </binding> | | <service name="Service"> | <port name="Port" binding="tns:Binding"> | <soap:address location="http://localhost/service" /> | </port> | </service> | | </definitions> Is this a bug? Shall I open a JIRA for JBWS? Thanks in advance for any advice, and kind regards. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4231536#...
