Moving from apache axis to apache cxf

[Rahul Gupta]

Hi,

We are trying to move our existing project from apache axis to apache cxf. We can't change the version of Jira(< 6.3) as few of our customer are on older Jira. We are having wsdl(jirasoapservice-v2) which is based on RPC/encoded that was supported by axis but not by cxf.  

How do I migrate from axis to cxf ?

               --> Tried moving axis to cxf getting error as " Execution default of goal org.apache.cxf:cxf-codegen-plugin:2.7.2:wsdl2java failed: Rpc/encoded wsdls are not supported with CXF -> [Help 1]"  

Any suggestion in this regard will help.

PS : It is not possible for us to migrate to REST.

Thanks,
Rahul

This is a cxf question, not one for Atlassain.

The message is clear - cxf as you're using it does not support RPC/SOAP.  My limited understanding is that cxf can be made to do so, but you have to explicitly tell it that you're doing so.  See http://cxf.apache.org/docs/developing-a-service.html
