    Description

      WSDL2Ws has two ssl options which are now out of date and not used -
      In the Call class we have:
      int AXISCALL initialize(PROVIDERTYPE nStyle, int secure);
      and
      int openConnection(int secure);

      The secure parameters in these methods are not used at all. Ideally they have to be removed from
      the code to avoid confusion. The WSDL tool option must have been based on these parameters.

      Thanks,
      Samisa...
