how to customize the xsd that axis2 generates

Question

I am following the "web service from pojo"[1] bottom-up guide in axis2 documentations, but the wsdl that is generated is not good. Specifically, the xsd schema that is embedded in the wsdl is not good and I want to customize it. I want to allow cyclic references, in a similar fashion to what jaxb lets you do with XMLID and XMLREFID.

Any ideas?

Thanks

If you use the Netbeans plugin for AXIS2 (tutorial here) you can specify to edit the WSDL, otherwise I can't help, sorry. Maybe you could look at the options available for the ant task?

I do find AXIS2 overly painful compared to other web service frameworks, and the documentation leaves a lot to be desired.
