javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchemaType missing

[Mat Anthony]

Hi All,
I'm trying to consume a third party wsdl using jax-ws approach using wsimport to generate all the client classes from the wsdl.
In my spring configuration file the bean displayBean does not get created due to the following error:-
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'displayBean' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext_webservices.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.annotation.IncompleteAnnotationException: javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchemaType missing element name

Not sure how to fix the bind error. The class something.WebServiceSoap was generated as part of the wsimport call.

file:DisplayBean.java

package com.demo.view;

import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.RequestScoped;
import javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement;
import something.AddSoftwareVersionDetails;
import something.UserRequest;
import something.WebServiceSoap;

@ManagedBean(name="displayBean")
@RequestScoped    
public class DisplayBean 
{
 private WebServiceSoap webServicePortType;
 public WebServiceSoap getWebServicePortType() 
 {
	return webServicePortType;
 }
 public void setWebServicePortType(WebServiceSoap webServicePortType) 
 {
	this.webServicePortType = webServicePortType;
 }

 private String softwareVersion;
 public String getWSSoftwareVersion() 
 {
	return softwareVersion;
 }
 public String getSoftwareVersion()
  {
	  softwareVersion=callWSSoftwareVersion(); 
	  return "image.xhtml";
  }
  private String callWSSoftwareVersion() 
  {
	try
	{
		UserRequest userRequest= new UserRequest();
		ObjectFactory factory = new ObjectFactory(); 
		JAXBElement<String> user=factory.createUser("Mat");
		userRequest.setUser(user);
		AddSoftwareVersionDetails addSoftwareVersionDetails =webServicePortType.addSoftwareVersion(userRequest);
		String result=addSoftwareVersionDetails.getSoftwareVersionOutMessage();
		return result;
	}
	catch(Exception re)
	{
		re.printStackTrace();
		return "RemoteException calling webServicePortType.addSoftwareVersion";
	}
  }
  
 }

file:build.xml (sample part)
<taskdef name="wsimport" classname="com.sun.tools.ws.ant.WsImport"> <classpath refid="jaxws.classpath"/> </taskdef> <target name="generate-artifacts-classes"> <wsimport debug="true" keep="true" destdir="${build.home}/classes" verbose="true" package="something" extension="true" xendorsed="true" wsdl="http://11.111.111.11:8888/Demo_ws/services/WebService?wsdl"> </wsimport> </target>

I would appreciate any help on solving this.
