1	org.apache.cxf.service.factory.ServiceConstructionException: Could not resolve a binding for http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/

add the following spring resources in your Spring context file:

 <import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" />

 <import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-soap.xml" />

Gradle JDK 1.6 source compatibility

To configure JDK 1.6 compatibility in the generated eclipse JDT preferences file using gradle, add this to the build.gradle file:

eclipseJdt{
 whenConfigured { domain ->
  domain.sourceCompatibility=org.gradle.api.JavaVersion.toVersion("1.6")
  domain.targetCompatibility=org.gradle.api.JavaVersion.toVersion("1.6")
    }
}

Or something simpler, add the following to the build.gradle file:

sourceCompatibility=1.6
targetCompatibility=1.6
