ADB cannot handle null return value from service method
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AXIS2-1254
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-1254
             Project: Apache Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: databinding
    Affects Versions: nightly
         Environment: Linux, Java 1.5
            Reporter: Dennis Sosnoski


When the response content is an optional element null should be a valid return 
value from the corresponding method. I tried this with the following 
WSDL/schema fragment:
      
      <element name="getBookResponse">
        <complexType>
          <sequence>
            <element name="book" minOccurs="0" type="tns:BookInformation"/>
          </sequence>
        </complexType>
      </element>

  <wsdl:message name="getBookResponse">
    <wsdl:part element="wns:getBookResponse" name="parameters"/>
  </wsdl:message>

The result was an error on the server side when the corresponding method 
returned null:

     [java] Exception in thread "main" org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: 
java.lang.RuntimeException: book cannot be null!!
     [java]     at 
org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.execute(OutInAxisOperation.java:298)
     [java]     at 
com.sosnoski.ws.library.adb.LibraryAdbStub.getBook(LibraryAdbStub.java:340)
     [java]     at 
com.sosnoski.ws.library.adb.WebServiceClient.main(WebServiceClient.java:45)
     ...

A null return value should be accepted in this case, resulting in an empty 
wrapper element (<getBookResponse/>, in this case).
