Hi Donald,
Many thanks for your information.
May I know whehter the next realease of AXIS2 will include the
features: mapping mtom attachment to xml base64binary and SwA can support
byte[]?
Mapping MTOM attachments to base64Binary is already there..
I'm not sure of the practical possiblity to have SwA support byte[]...
AFAIK nobody is working on such a thing :(...
Thanks,
Thilina
