When you want to create a CXF Client there is no way to select JBossWS CXF as the WS Runtime.

I have a CXF Web Service deployed to JBoss. The wsdl is published to a URL.

I go to File->New->Web Services->Web Service Client.

At this dialogue box I get to choose my configuration to create the client stubs. When selecting Web Service Runtime, I cannot select JBossWS CXF that is within JBoss. It only gives me options for Apache Axis, Apache CXF and JbossWS.

So I then think I need to add a CXF runtime from Window->Preferences->Web Services->CXF.2x Preferences. Once again, this doesn't let me choose a JBossWS CXF runtime other than an Apache CXF runtime. How can I select JBossWS CXF as the CXF runtime of choice?

Selecting JBossWS and a JBoss Server With CXF installed does not work either. I choose the CXF JBoss Server Runtime and JBossWS as the Web Service Runtime. The generated classes have the following header.

/**

• This class was generated by the JAX-WS RI.
• JAX-WS RI 2.1.7-09/10/2010 09:17 PM(mockbuild)-
• Generated source version: 2.1
  *
  */

Using wsconsume.sh from the same JBoss instance the generated classes have the following header

/**

• This class was generated by Apache CXF 2.2.6-patch-01
• Tue Oct 04 14:16:01 BST 2011
• Generated source version: 2.2.6-patch-01
  *
  */

As you can see the JBDS still uses JBossWS Native as the stack to build the client stubs from.
