Problem conclusion

  • A Null Pointer Exception (NPE) was thrown when running UML to
    WSDL transformation on a model containing complex types with
    multiple inheritance.Also,there is another issue of same element
    getting generated as a complex type as well as a group.
    The NPE has been fixed. Also,an additional option "Only group
    for parents of XSDs with multiple generalizations" has been
    added in Output Options tab in UML to WSDL transformation
    configuration. If this option is selected, only group will be
    generated for parent of XSDs with multiple generalizations,
    provided the parent does not have other references.
