Hi Mandy

Thanks for experimenting,

"schemaLocations" points to resources which are assumed to be XML 
schemas and these schemas are read as XML. I've actually created a JIRA 
few days ago to support inlining JSON schemas but for now 
schemaLocations is assumed to point to XML schemas only.

Use an "externalLinks" property, see

https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cxf.git;a=blob;f=rt/rs/description/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/jaxrs/model/wadl/WadlGeneratorJsonTest.java;h=cf368062059d21624cab45bd7614c6789c02f41e;hb=HEAD

Another option is to use WADL XML as usual but set a 
'linkAnyMediaTypeToXmlSchema' property, so you'd see representations of 
type JSON linked to XML schema elements - which is semantically not 
correct but can give a good idea to users what properties a JSON request 
or response may have...

We have also started supporting Swagger - which can be good for 
describing JSON only services

Cheers, Sergey
