Answer 1

I have just tried that if you use SoapUI (5.4.x) and use Apache CXF tool to generate java code, put javax.xml.accessExternalSchema = all in YOUR_JDK/jre/lib/jaxp.properties file also works.

Answer 2

When using Maven with IntelliJ IDE you can add -Djavax.xml.accessExternalSchema=all to Maven setting under JVM Options for Maven Build Tools Runner configuration

Answer 3

It is now fixed in 2.5 version (released in jul/17). https://github.com/mojohaus/jaxws-maven-plugin/issues/8.

For the 2.4.x versions there is a workaround (as decribed in https://github.com/mojohaus/jaxws-maven-plugin/issues/4):

    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>jaxws-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.4.1</version>
        <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
                <artifactId>jaxws-tools</artifactId>
                <version>2.2.10</version>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>
    </plugin>

Answer 4

I tested this for version 2.4 of artifact org.codehaus.mojo and that worked ~

<plugins>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>jaxws-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.4.1</version>
        <executions>
            <execution>

                <goals>
                    <goal>wsimport</goal>
                </goals>
                <configuration>
                    <wsdlDirectory>path/to/dir/wsdl</wsdlDirectory>
                </configuration>
                <id>wsimport-web-service</id>
                <phase>generate-sources</phase>
            </execution>
        </executions>
        <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>javax.xml</groupId>
                <artifactId>webservices-api</artifactId>
                <version>${webservices-api-version}</version>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>
        <configuration>
            <vmArgs>
                <vmArg>-Djavax.xml.accessExternalSchema=all</vmArg>
            </vmArgs>
            <sourceDestDir>generated-sources/jaxws-wsimport</sourceDestDir>
            <xnocompile>true</xnocompile>
            <verbose>true</verbose>
            <extension>true</extension>
            <sei>/</sei>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>
</plugins>

Answer 5

Another alternative is to update wsimport.sh shell script by adding the following:

The wsimport.sh is located in this directory:

jaxws-ri.2.2.28/bin

exec "$JAVA" $WSIMPORT_OPTS -Djavax.xml.accessExternalSchema=all -jar "$JAXWS_HOME/lib/jaxws-tools.jar" "$@"

Answer 6

Another reference: If you are using the maven-jaxb2-plugin, prior to version 0.9.0, you can use the workaround described on this issue, in which this behaviour affected the plugin.
