java - JAX-WS duplicates complex type when generating wsdl -

i'm developing web service several methods taking input identical complex data types. data types have jaxb annotations , setters , getters, , web service class has jax-ws annotations.

template of service.java file:

@webservice(servicename = "servicews") public class sericews {  private static serviceif serviceimpl;  static {     serviceimpl = new serviceimpl(); }  public result method1(credentials credentials) {         @webparam(name = "credentials") credentials credentials) {       return serviceimpl.method1(credentials); }      public result method2(credentials credentials) {         @webparam(name = "credentials") credentials credentials) {       return serviceimpl.method2(credentials); } 

}

edit: credentials.java file:

@xmlaccessortype(xmlaccesstype.field) @xmltype(name = "", proporder = {     "name",     "password" }) @xmlrootelement(name = "credentials") public class credentials implements mybean {      @xmlelement(required = true)     protected string name;     @xmlelement(required = true)     protected string password;      /**      * gets value of name property.      *       * @return name property of credentials      *           */     public string getname() {         return name;     }      /**      * sets value of name property.      *       * @param value name property of credentials      *           */     public void setname(string value) {        this.name = value;     }      /**      * gets value of password property.      *       * @return password property of credentials      *           */     public string getpassword() {         return password;     }      /**      * sets value of password property.      *       * @param value password property of credentials      *             */     public void setpassword(string password) {         this.password = password;     }   } 

the service deployed in tomcat , wsdl auto-generated. when generating client stubs wsimport duplicate generation of credentials type (credentials, method1.credentials , method2.credentials), i.e. different (inner) class each method.

it seems problem arrises when wsdl , schema generated :

<xs:schema xmlns:tns="http://service.my.package.com/"             xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/xmlschema" version="1.0"  targetnamespace="http://service.my.package.com/"> <xs:element name="credentials">  <xs:complextype>   <xs:sequence>    <xs:element name="name" type="xs:string"/>    <xs:element name="password" type="xs:string"/>   </xs:sequence>  </xs:complextype> </xs:element>   .... <xs:complextype name="getlockboxkeys">  <xs:sequence>   <xs:element name="credentials" minoccurs="0">    <xs:complextype>     <xs:sequence>      <xs:element name="name" type="xs:string"/>      <xs:element name="password" type="xs:string"/>     </xs:sequence>   </xs:complextype>  </xs:element>      ..... 

how can make work such have 1 definition of credentials? quite new web services, jax-ws , jaxb i'm not sure have annotations right.

any appreciated.

i'm not going give complete answer explaining rules, since don't remember/understand them all.

but think if add name element @xmltype annotation you'll you're looking (or @ least bit further).

@xmlaccessortype(xmlaccesstype.field) @xmltype(name = "credentials", proporder = {     "name",     "password" }) @xmlrootelement(name = "credentials") public class credentials { 

btw, original service.java file didn't seem paste cleanly (had incorrect braces think) making hard recreate.
