Error description

• While running a JAX-WS application an
  IllegalAnnotationsException may occur.
  
  Here is an example error:

  counts of IllegalAnnotationExceptions
  com.sample.BeanInterface
  is an interface, and JAXB can't handle interfaces.
  this problem is related to the following location:

  "{http://com.sample". Use @XmlType.name and @XmlType.namespace
  to assign different names to them.

  These errors indicate that the JAX-WS runtime did not find and
  load the application's JAXB classes.
  

Problem conclusion

• The JAX-WS runtime examines the applications wsdl file and web
  service code to find all of the JAXB classes.
  
  The "<class> is an interface" error occurs because the JAX-WS
  runtime incorrectly loaded an interface that was in the same
  package as other JAXB classes.   The JAX-WS runtime is changed
  to avoid loading such classes.
  
  The "Two classes have the same XML type" error occurs because
  the JAX-WS runtime's search algorithm incorrectly loaded a
  class from a shared jar that had the same XML type as a class
  that was directly referenced by the application.  The search
  algorithm is changed to load the referenced class and avoid
  loading the second class.
  
  The changes correct the problem, and the exception will no
  longer occur.
  
  This same problem is fixed in the V7 WebSphere Application
  Server by APAR PM10783.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 6.1.0.33.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
