WSDL2C, ADB & xsi:type based deserialization
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: AXIS2C-1071
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-1071
             Project: Axis2-C
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core/addressing
            Reporter: Sam Meder


I have the problem of having to work with a wsdl interface the makes use of 
type extensions and xsi:type. For example:

         <complexType name="VirtualHardware">
            <complexContent>
               <extension base="vim25:DynamicData">
                  <sequence>
                     <element name="numCPU" type="xsd:int" />
                     <element name="memoryMB" type="xsd:int" />
                     <element name="device" type="vim25:VirtualDevice" 
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
                  </sequence>
               </extension>
            </complexContent>
         </complexType>

where the VirtualDevice type is extended in various ways to reflect different 
kind of device types:

         <complexType name="VirtualController">
            <complexContent>
               <extension base="vim25:VirtualDevice">
                  <sequence>
                     <element name="busNumber" type="xsd:int" />
                     <element name="device" type="xsd:int" minOccurs="0" 
maxOccurs="unbounded" />
                  </sequence>
               </extension>
            </complexContent>
         </complexType>

The issue I am running into is that WSDL2C does not seem to support this kind 
of xsi:type based type serialization/deserialization (which admittedly fits 
really poorly with a non-object oriented language like C). You could probably 
make it work by storing type information in the generated structs, combined 
with a type registry.

Any suggestions on workarounds other than using the XML model?
