Description

When I generate my client-package from the WSDL file, runtime still needs access to WSDL file when accessing web service. This means I need to add WSDL file to resources, and it gets more complicated when additional XSD files are included in WSDL.

I think many people would prefer to have "compiled" version od WSDL (not necessarily XML, maybe even JSON or whatever) inside generated Java client package. It could be separate .java file with single static String containing WSDL. This would be an option, like -embedWsdl. This would eliminate need for resource WSDL files and simplify pom.xml file client generation.
