Axis 1.4 or Axis 2? I am not sure about Axis 2.0. But I have used axis 1.4 with very little success with searializing Maps, or for that matter even HashMaps. One reason being the value for the keys in the HashMap can have an undefined structure and hence I believe Axis cannot figure out how to serialize it. And anyway SOAP is about Objects, and I think, in this respect, it means objects with defined structures. (as per the wsdl). Here are my 2 cents, dont use Map, hashMap or for that matter any data type whose structure is undefined. Use rigid objects.
