IM is pretty much useless to me, so I'm not going to keep typing half of
this over and over. Here it is in email....
Wsimport uses mex to build the client artifacts, but only when
retrieving the wsdl remotely. If the wsdl exists as a local file,
there's no point in using mex. So mex tests can only be run when http is
being used. Otherwise, the mex tests can be skipped (as long as they're
run some times).
As part of the mex tests, I have a servlet that contains hard coded
messages that acts like a web service for mex to send requests to. I
need to be able to deploy that servlet (2 java files and a web.xml) as
part of the mex tests.
Later, when we have a tcp mode or smtp mode or whatever
(

will be something similar for those transports. But "local transport"
isn't really a transport, so mex can't use it.
Thanks,
Bobby
