hi tom, thanks you your reply. if you have already working with axis 1.x could you please help on answering these questions?

Here what I am trying to do is to use it with the wsdl2java tool. i.e with the contract first approach. So the main question is what is the generated method signature for <s:element name="TestSoapElement2"> > <s:complexType> > <s:sequence> > <s:element name="param1" type="s:string"/> > <s:element name="param2" type="soapenc:Array"/> > </s:sequence> > </s:complexType> > </s:element> this type of element. what is the type of param2 in Axis 1.x? Here in code generation time I do not know the type of the array. That is why I set it as a new type letting users to define it. > > I would also argue for "full" multiref support, as servers will be > sending this back to Axis2 clients, right? I agree.
