Create Java class from WSDL

Question

I am trying to create a Java class from WSDL with maven cxf-codegen-plugin, but when I try to do it, it just shows an error and no generated classes.

I can't understand why I have this error, my pom file looks okay to me.

My pom.xml looks like

When I build the project with Maven, I see the following error

Failed to execute goal org.apache.cxf:cxf-codegen-plugin:2.7.3:wsdl2java (generate-sources) on project WebServicesTest: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId: jar:file:/C:/Users/user/.m2/repository/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-xjc/2.2.6/jaxb-xjc-2.2.6.jar!/com/sun/tools/xjc/reader/xmlschema/bindinfo/binding.xsd; lineNumber: 86; columnNumber: 48; src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'xjc:globalJavaType' to a(n) 'group' component. 

Answer 1

Have a look at this post:

Cannot resolve the name 'xjc:globalJavaType' in jaxb-xjc-2.2.5-2.jar

You may have non-Latin characters in the path to your local Maven repo. Try changing your settings.xml to set the to some other directory containing only Latin characters and see if that helps.
