Hi Feh,
Here is how you return complex object with Axis2 (I'm showing this
in WSDL 1.1 version).
For Example:
Say you have the following method.
public Employee findEmployee (long empId);
This method is returning an Employee object which is a complex
object.
The Employee object looks like this.
Employee
String empName;
String empDesignation;
int empAge
String empDepartmentName
In your WSDL you represent this as follows (I'm showing the WSDL
in document/literal style and I'm showing only the schema definition
part, not the message, portType, binding & service parts, I hope you can
handle those).
<definitions targetNamespace="urn:ws.rsys.com"
xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/";
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:tns="your namespace">
<types>
<schema elementFormDefault="qualified"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
targetNamespace="your namespace">
<element name="findEmployee">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="empId" type="xsd:long"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
<complexType name="Employee">
<sequence>
<elemenet name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
<elemenet name="designation" type="xsd:string"/>
<elemenet name="age" type="xsd:int"/>
<elemenet name="departmentName"
type="xsd:string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
<element name="findEmployeeResponse">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="findEmployeeReturn"
type="tns:Employee"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>
</types>
... message ...
... portType ...
... binding ...
... service ...
</definitions>
Thanks
Raghu

Subject: returning complex object with Axis2
Please bear with me...it's been a few months since I've worked with Axis
2,
so my description of the situation may not be very clear...
I've learned just enough about Axis 2 to write a soap service. It is a
little bit unusual, in that the soap service was added to an existing
web
application, running under Tomcat. From what I remember, Axis 2 was
designed
to be its own container, so I had to find instructions somewhere on the
net
(where, I don't remember), which outlined how to incorporate Axis2 into
an
existing web app. Needless to say, this is probably not a "standard"
installation.
Anyway, all my services currently return primitive values (String, int,
int[], etc). I'm wondering how to return complex objects, if it's
possible.
Is there documentation or a howto that covers this situation? In all the
examples I've looked at so far, the service methods all return
primitives.
Thanks.
