Description

With several examples tha includes distinct grammars external schemes, the wadl2java tool fails if no executed "mvn generate-sources" with memory tunning java params. The error message:

[INFO] BUILD FAILURE

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.cxf:cxf-wadl2java-plugin:2.6.0:wadl2java (generate-sources) on project cxf_2_6_0_wadl: java.lang.RuntimeException: No XmlSchema in SchemaInfo -> [Help 1]
[ERROR]

The problem is the class "org.apache.cxf.service.model.SchemaInfo" that uses "org.apache.cxf.service.model.SoftReference". This implies that
the garbage collector resets Namespaces declared in a previous import.

Example:

<grammars>
<include href="../sdmx21/SDMXMessage.xsd"/>
<include href="SDMXRestTypes.xsd"/>
</grammars>

And the SDMXRestTypes.xsd references SDMXMessage.xsd namespaces.

Executed maven task with for example -Xms512M -Xmx1024M is successful.
