JavaTypes attribute of autoType Ant Task

Question

I have got two files Account.java and ContactInformation.java. I am trying to
create webservices for Account.java and this java file uses a non-build in data
type object ContactInformation.java.
After compiling the code i try and generate the serialization class, xsd, xml
and web-services xml using the ant task autotype. On running this i get the below
mentioned error
E:\bea\weblogic700\samples\server\src\examples\webservices\basic\account>E:\bea\weblogic700\server\bin\ant
-buildfile build1.xml
Buildfile: build1.xml
generate-typeinfo:
BUILD FAILED
E:\bea\weblogic700\samples\server\src\examples\webservices\basic\account\build1.xml:6:
The <autotype> task doesn't support the "javatypes" attribute.
Total time: 1 second
My entry in build1.xml is
<project name="buildWebservice" default="generate-typeinfo">
     <target name="generate-typeinfo">
          <autotype javaTypes="com.sun.sample.ws.account.ContactInformation"
                    targetNamespace="http://www.bea.com/webservices/basic/statelesSession"
                    packageName="com.sun.sample.ws.account"
                    destDir="." />
          </target>
</project>
Can someone point out how can this be corrected?

Thanks Michael,
This is what i am trying to do.
I have Account.java as java class that is to be used as a web service backend
component for weblogic web service. All the attributes of this class are primitive
types. There is one data type that is a NON BUILT IN DATA TYPE. Now in such a
scenario i need some more files to create a web service. The extra files are the
serilization class, an XML Schema reprsenting the non built in data type, data
type mapping information in the web-services.xml. These requiremnts are defined
in Chapter 9 of the weblogic webservices pdf document.
One can create the file manually or automatically. The manual is lengthy and complex
so I am following the automatic procedure. The document also suggests automatic
procedure. For that one need to write a build.xml with the contents that I have
already posted. When I execute the same it gives me error that the attribute javaTypes
is not supported.
For ur ref i am attaching the Account.java, ContactInformation.java(This is the
non built in data type used by Account.java, the websevice build.xml and the autotype
auto_build.xml). They are in a zip file.(2KB)
I followed the below steps after setting the env using the file setWLSEnv.cmd.
Compiled the java files using javac -d . *.java.
Now run the autotype ant task using auto_build.xml to generate the serilaization
class and XML schema. Here I get the error posted in the earlier email to this
group.
Thanks in advance for ur help

Hi Rahul,
I think this is either an error in the e-docs, or the code to actually
add the
javaTypes attribute to the AutoTypeTask didn't make it into the release.
It sounds like you have already created the ContactInformation.class
(from the
ContactInformation.java file), so are you just trying to get something
else out
of the <autotype> Ant task? If you can tell me what you were looking
for, I might
be able to tell you how to get it.
