| <h2><a name="Introduction"></a>Introduction</h2> |
| |
| <p>The Axis2 code generator comes built-in with an <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.eclipse.org">Eclipse</a> plug-in. This plug-in can be |
| used to generate a WSDL file from a java class (Java2WSDL) and/or a |
| java class file from a WSDL (WSDL2Java). First you need to install |
| the plug-in. The instructions for the installation process are |
| given below.</p> |
| </section> |
| <section> |
| <h2><a name="Installation"></a>Installation</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| Installation instructions for the plugin can be found |
| <a href="plugin-installation.html">here</a>. |
| </p> |
| </section> |
| <section> |
| <h2><a name="Operation"></a>Operation</h2> |
| <section> |
| <h3><a name="WSDL2Java"></a>WSDL2Java</h3> |
| |
| <p>If the plug-in is properly installed you should see a new wizard |
| under the "New" section.(use the File -> New -> Other or Ctrl |
| + N )</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen0.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen0" /></p> |
| |
| <p>Selecting the wizard and pressing the "Next" button will start |
| the code generator wizard. Following is the first wizard page.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Page 1:</b></p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen1.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen1" /></p> |
| |
| <p>Selecting the "Generate Java source code from WSDL file" option |
| and clicking "Next" leads to the following page.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>WSDL2Java Page 2 :</b></p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen2.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen2" /></p> |
| |
| <p>To move on to the next page the WSDL file location must be |
| given. The "Browse" button can be used to easily browse for a file |
| rather than typing the whole path.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>WSDL2Java Page 3 :</b></p> |
| |
| <p>Once the WSDL file is selected, the next page will take you to |
| the page from where <b>codegen options</b> are to be |
| selected. By far this is the most important page in this wizard. |
| This page determines the characteristics of the code being |
| generated.</p> |
| |
| <p>Novices need not worry about these options since the most common |
| options are defaulted, but advanced users will find it very easy to |
| turn the knobs using these options.</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen3.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen3" /></p> |
| |
| <p>What advanced users can do is select custom from the select |
| codegen options drop down list and then change/edit the fields that |
| you need.</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen31.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen31" /></p> |
| |
| <p>Once the options are selected, only the final step of the code |
| generation is left which is the selection of the output file |
| location.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>WSDL2Java Page 4 :</b></p> |
| |
| <p>Here you can select the output file path by typing or browsing |
| using the "Browse" button. You have the option of browsing only |
| eclipse workspace projects by selecting the "Add the source to a |
| project on current eclipse workspace" radio button. Or else you |
| have the option to save the codegen resutls to file system</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen4.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen4" /></p> |
| |
| <p>Here also you have the option to add some value to the codegen |
| results. If you have enabled the check box "Add Axis2 libraries to |
| the codegen result project" then all other controls below will get |
| enabled. What you can do is point the downloaded Axis2_HOME |
| location via the "Browse" button. Then you can verify the |
| availability of the Axis2 libs by clicking on the "Check Libs" |
| button. If all goes well then you can add the axis 2 libs to the |
| codegen results location. Another option is available to generate a |
| jar file if the user needs to add the codegen results to a project |
| as a compiled jar file to the selected locations lib directory.</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/wsdl2java-screen41.png" alt="wsdl2java-screen41" /></p> |
| |
| <p>When the output file location is selected, the "Finish" button |
| will be enabled. Clicking the "Finish" button will generate the |
| code and a message box will pop up acknowledging the success. Well |
| Done! You've successfully completed Axis2 code generation.</p> |
| </section> |
| <section> |
| <h3><a name="Java2WSDL"></a>Java2WSDL</h3> |
| |
| <p><b>Page 1:</b></p> |
| |
| <p>For this operation you need to select the option which says |
| "Generate a WSDL from a Java source file"</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/java2wsdl-screen0.png" alt="java2wsdl-screen0" /></p> |
| |
| <p>Then click the "Next" button which will lead to the next page |
| below.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Java2WSDL Page 2:</b></p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/java2wsdl-screen1.png" alt="java2wsdl-screen1" /></p> |
| |
| <p>In this page one needs to select the class to be exposed and the |
| relevant jar files /classes to be loaded as the classpath. After |
| the libraries have been set, the "Test Class Loading" button must |
| be clicked in order to test whether the class is loadable. Unless |
| the class loading is successful proceeding to the "Next" button |
| will not be enabled.</p> |
| |
| <p>Once the classloading is successful and "Next" button is clicked |
| the page below will appear.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Java2WSDL Page 3:</b></p> |
| |
| <p>This page allows the parameters to be modified by setting the |
| options for the generator.</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/java2wsdl-screen2.png" alt="java2wsdl-screen2" /></p> |
| |
| <p><b>Java2WSDL Page 4:</b></p> |
| |
| <p>Here you can select the output file path by typing or browsing |
| using the "Browse" button. You have the option of browsing only |
| Eclipse workspace projects by selecting the "Add the source to a |
| project on current eclipse workspace" radio button . Or else you |
| have the option to save the codegen resutls to file system. Once |
| the output file location and the output WSDL file name is added you |
| can click the "Finish" button to complete generation.</p> |
| |
| <p><img src="images/java2wsdl-screen3.png" alt="java2wsdl-screen3" /></p> |
| |
| <p>If a message box pops up acknowledging the success, then you've |
| successfully completed the Java2WSDL code generation.</p> |
