Apache CXF wsdl2java with gcc

Thu Aug 13 09:01:00 GMT 2009

Hi All,
There is an issue with gcc 4.2.4 while trying to use the CXF
(http://cxf.apache.org/index.html) libraries and tools for
web-services, specifically using the wsdl2java tool.
While with Sun's java, there is no problem:
$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/
$ ./wsdl2java
Missing argument: wsdlurl
Usage : wsdl2java -fe <front-end-name>* -db <data-binding-name>* -wv
<wsdl-version>* -p <[wsdl-namespace =]package-name>* -sn
<service-name> -b <binding-file-name>* -catalog <catalog-file-name> -d
<output-directory> -compile -classdir <compile-classes-directory>
-impl -server -client -all -autoNameResolution
-allowElementReferences<=true>
-defaultValues<=class-name-for-DefaultValueProvider> -ant -nexclude
<schema-namespace [= java-package-name]>* -exsh <(true, false)> -dns
<Default value is true> -dex <(true, false)> -validate -keep
-wsdlLocation <wsdlLocation> -xjc<xjc-arguments> -noAddressBinding -h
-v -verbose -quiet -wsdlList <wsdlurl>
When using the gcc jvm, I get this:
$ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/
$ ./wsdl2java
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error:

Is this a known problem, i.e. bug report ? Is there a work around ? Is
there a webservices framework that works fine with gcc ?
Many thanks for your help
