Option | Interpretation |
---|---|
| Displays the online help for this utility and exits. |
| Specifies the package name of root resource classes |
| Specifies one or more package names corresponding to individual schema namespaces |
| Specifies a full name of root resource class if WADL contains a single resource |
| Default option unless -impl option is used - Java interfaces with JAX-RS annotations are generated |
| Generates starting implementation code. Can also be used with -interface option |
| Requests that no schema generation is needed. Can also be used with -tMap option |
| Provides mapping between schema elements and java types |
| Provides mapping between media types and java types |
| Specifies JAXB binding files. Use multiple -b flags to specify multiple entries. |
| Specifies catalog file to map referenced wadl/schemas |
| Specifies the directory into which the generated code files are written. |
| Compiles generated Java files. |
| Specifies the directory into which the compiled class files are written. |
| Generate JAX-RS Response instead of 'void' for methods with no response representations. |
| Get current resource-level path or matrix parameters added to generated methods for all descendant resources. |
| Generates Java enums for parameters with options. |
| Generates separate method for every XML representation in a single WADL request element. |
-javaDocs | Converts WADL doc elements into JavaDocs |
-generateResponseIfHeadersSet | Generates JAX-RS Response method response type if WADL response element for a given method has 'header' parameters |
-generateResponseForMethods methodNames | Generates JAX-RS Response method response type, methodNames is a comma-separated list of WADL method name or id attributes |
| Adds JAX-RS 2.0 AsyncResponse parameter to generated methods, methodNames is a comma-separated list of WADL method name or id attributes |
-authentication | Specifies a colon separated user name and password for retrieving the remote WADL content from the servers requiring the authentication |
| Specifies a comma separated list of arguments that are passed directly to the XJC processor, example -xjc-Xts. |
- rx <library> | Specifies the use of the JAX-RS 2.1 reactive extensions for generating method signatures. The supported supported <library> values are:
|
-validate | Validate a WADL document against the WADL schema |
wadlurl | The path and name of the WADL file to use in generating the code. |

In some cases, example when describing JSON arrays, you may want to have an explicit collection of types defined in schema generated. In this case use -tMap or -repMap option with a value such as "List..MyType".
The reactive extensions support is limited to Java 8 standard library APIs only, which essentially means CompletionStage / CompletableFuture are supported at the moment. Please note that the void / one-way methods are not generated with CompletionStage / CompletableFuture and kept unchanged.
JAXB customizations
At the moment it is possible to apply external JAXB customizations to WADL grammars however it is not possible yet to restrict a given customization to a specific WADL document or explicitly inlined schema. Linking binding to external schemas works, for example, the following bindings file can be used:
