You're right. The array within the array should be mapped to this: <login xmlns="http://some/namespace";> <username>tim</username> <password>tim</password> <options> <name>dummy1</name> <value xsi:type="xsd:string">dummy_val1</value> </options> <options> <name>dummy2</name> <value xsi:type="ns1:NamedValue" xmlns:ns1="http://some/namespace";> <name>dummy2-1</name> <value xsi:type="xsd:string">val2-1</value> <name>dummy2-2</name> <value xsi:type="xsd:int">314</value> </value> </options> </login>
I suggest you file a bug report, because Axis is not generating the right message structure per the WSDL. Anne On 4/13/05, Tim K.
