This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
If the project type is "Web Application" (using built-in Tomcat) one cannot generate any web service clients - including the "IDE generated static stub" ones. I understand that I cannot generate "J2EE Container-generated static stub" ones, but I should be able to consume a remote web service by creating a regular web service client.
You can do it using Tomcat + JWSDP 1.6. If you need to do it on other (currently unsupported) configuration then file an enhancement instead of P1 bug. Marking invalid. BTW: you can generate and deploy both types of clients, just follow tips eg. in Geertjan's blog: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/geertjan?entry=deploying_web_services_to_tomcat
Ok, it's now a request for enhancement. Thank you for the link, it's helpful, however it is not something that I can recommend to my customers as a user-friendly approach. Please understand that we (InsiTech) are a long time user of Netbens and that we recommend either Eclipse or Netbeans to our customer base, and that they choose the platform based on ease of use. I am asking for features out of the desire to be able to continue to recommend NetBeans over Eclipse, so I hope you can help me with that. Thank you
planned for 5.5 (JAX-WS 2.0 only)...
implemented in latest builds
