Introduction

What is libwsdl2c-java

libwsdl2c-java is:

This is an amalgam of code from several java projects which are required to use WSDL2C from the Apache Axis 2 project. The goal is to have code which can be built from source without the chain of dependencies needed to build each of these projects in their entirety.

The code in this project coms from the following sources:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/axis/axis2/java/core/tags/v1.4.1 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/commons/tags/axiom/1.2.12 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/commons/tags/neethi/neethi-3.0.1 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/commons/tags/XmlSchema/1.4.2 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/woden/tags/1.0M9 https://svn.java.net/svn/jsr311~svn/tags/jsr311-api-1.1.1 svn://svn.annogen.codehaus.org/annogen/scm [1]

At this point, none of the sources have been modified. Note that the jsr311 code (i.e., the files under javax/ws/rs) is provided under the CDDL, while all other code uses the Apache Software License, version 2.0.

Notes: [1] could not access this link, and pulled the code out of a jpackage RPM, but theoretically the code still lives in this repo.
