Wscompile insertion of schema types into wsdl file

Question

The <types/> element is empty in my WSDL file after I compile the web service with wscompile. The operation parameter type is String. I am using Apache XMLBeans. How do I configure wscompile in JWSDP 2.0 to insert the schema types into the WSDL file when it generates the WSDL?
Thank you,
Glenn

The targetnamespace is used define the namespace for the definitions made in your schema.
For example,
<xsd:schema
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace="foo">
<xsd:complexType name="fred">
</xsd:complexType>
Then "Fred" will be in the "foo" namespace
And if you had another schema in your wsdl like
<xsd:schema
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace="bar">
<xsd:complexType name="fred">
</xsd:complexType>
Then you would have two "fred" types one in the "foo" namespace and one in the "bar" namespace.
Then later on in your WSDL you could refer to either one.
