Empty sub-classes in output of wsdl2apex??

Hey,

I am finding, when running certain WSDL files thru 'wsdl2apex', that there are empty sub-classes in the resulting Apex code, and I'm not sure what do do with them. 

I have included a stripped-down WSDL sample, and the resulting Apex, below.  Note in particular the element 'SendingCompanyID', embedded in the 'CustomerTransfer' element, which encapsulates a SimpleType.  Pretty basic stuff, I think.  The resulting 'SendingCompanyID_element' class in the Apex code is empty.  Is this correct?  I have to pass an instance of that class into the 'BasicHttpBinding_ITwoWayAsyncVoid.rcv_operation_Intake()' method, and I cannot see how to to actually insert any information into it.

Can someone out there help me understand how to use this Apex class - or, if there's something wrong with it, what to do about it?

Also - I have heard references to wsdl2apex documentation - but it's not apparent where it is - if there's a link to some good technical docs, can someone point me at it?

Thanks

This is due to a bug in handling simpleType restriction in 
your WSDL:

<xs:element name="SendingCompanyID">
          <xs:simpleType>
            <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
              <xs:maxLength value="25" />
            </xs:restriction>
          </xs:simpleType>
        </xs:element>


You can replace this with xs:string.

<xs:element name="SendingCompanyID" type="xs:string"></xs:element>

HTHs,

Hey,

Thanks, I think this'll work fine.  I take it then that there's no way to preserve the value-add in those <xs:simpleType> blocks in the resulting Apex code - e.g....

maximum length of strings
enumerations
minimum and maximum values of integers

Is there anything on the roadmap to add in support for this stuff?

Thanks!

I have the same problem. I am getting an empty class in wsdl2apex output for the following element.
 
<xs:simpleType name="NotificationSeverityType">
    <xs:annotation>
     <xs:documentation>Identifies the set of severity values for a Notification.</xs:documentation>
    </xs:annotation>
    <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
     <xs:enumeration value="ERROR"/>
     <xs:enumeration value="FAILURE"/>
     <xs:enumeration value="NOTE"/>
     <xs:enumeration value="SUCCESS"/>
     <xs:enumeration value="WARNING"/>
    </xs:restriction>
   </xs:simpleType>
 
wsdl2apex output is,
 
public class NotificationSeverityType {
}
 
How do I manage to create the class for simpleType with enumeration list?
 
thanks
