hey, As my subject line says I'm facing a problem when I try to send an array in a container with Axis 1.2.1. Here are the steps I followed.
The service at the server side returns the following UserCollection. (getUsers method in the service class returns UserCollection.) UserCollection { User[] users; } I have defined an arrayMapping for 'User[]', beanMapping for 'User' and beanMapping for 'UserCollection'. I generate WSDL using (Java2WSDL) and client side java files using (WSDL2Java). As I run the client side code it failed with ArrayStoreException with a message cannot convert to bean etc. (some serialization issue) After going thru some forum discussions I added the following (indexed) to the 'UserCollection' object. UserCollection { User[] users; setUsers(int i, User user) { users[i] = user; } getUsers(int i) { return users[i]; } } And things started working fine as expected. I was able to use the webservice (got the list of users). But the *ServiceSoapBindingImpl that got generated at the client side had return as 'User[]' and not 'UserCollection' as defined at the server side. I would like to know why is this and what needs to be corrected for the above to return 'UserCollection' ? (getUsers returned User[] instead of UserCollection.) Being a newbie I tried the options (-u LITERAL and -y WRAPPED) to figure out what difference it makes and if it can help in the current scenario but it did not. Looking forward for a response. cheerz ranjiith s __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
