please help on answering these
questions?

In axis 1.x is it use in code first or contract first (i.e. wsdl2java)
approach? 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:element name="param1" type="s:string"/>

>             </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 agree. I'll add this feature as I have describe earlier.

For the moment in Axis 2 ADB is also in a very stable state.  so using
already existing ADB logic
won't give any serializing de serializing issues.

Thanks,
Amila.
