Here's the problem:
I tried with multiple Eclipse IDE versions.
eclipse-jee-galileo-SR1-win32
eclipse-jee-galileo-SR2-win32
eclipse-jee-helios-SR2-win32
eclipse-jee-indigo-SR1-win32
Axis2 runtime is axis2-1.6.1
Axis2 Plugin from http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/tools/index.html
org.apache.axis2.eclipse.service.plugin_1.6.1.jar
org.apache.axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin_1.6.1.jar
Tried putting above jars into either dropins or plugin directories, but not able to see Axis2 Wizard under File -> New -> Other (for all of the above eclipse IDEs).
This folder is used by the p2 provisioning system introduced in recent Eclipse version. It should be present starting with Eclipse version 3.4. If your Eclipse version uses p2, use the following procedure to install the Axis2 plugins: Download the ZIP file for the plugin you want to install.
I've tried Axis2 plugin 1.6.0 with Helios and Indigo, and it does work either. The WSDL generation has an exception on the last step of the wizard: An error occurred while completing process - java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException The code generation creates a file on the file system, but there is nothing in it.
If a plugin doesn’t show up in the Eclipse UI, use the following debugging procedure: Start Eclipse with the -console option. In the console, use ss axis2 to check if the plugin has been installed and to identify its bundle ID.
Now start the eclipse and then go to File-->New--> Others and then expand "Axis2 Wizards". Here you will find the Eclipse Axis2 Code generator and Service Archiver wizards. I encountered a similar issue using Spring Tool Suite (on top of Eclipse) and had to place my jar files into the spring (STS) dropin folder.
There was indeed an issue with the 1.6.1 versions of the plugins. You can use 1.6.0 or one of the snapshot builds.
