Hi, What kind of value are you getting back? I don't think xs:any was designed for this. It should be to generically represent an object that actually has an XSD schema. In what you're trying to do below, what is the schema of the xml you expect to be returned? -Vinh

I can use Axis2 in our client side but we need to make it work with Axis 1.4 to support backward compatibility. I checked axis2 and found that it supports Object array as return type however, it does not work with following return type (Object array of Objejectarray of Object array): public Object[] returnObjectArray(String authToken) { Object[] retVal = new Object[3]; Object[] args = new Object[3]; args[0] = new Object[] {"Arg1", "Arg2", "Arg3"}; args[1] = new Object[] {"Arg1", "Arg2", "Arg3"}; args[2] = new Object[] {"Arg1", "Arg2", "Arg3"}; retVal[0] = new Object[] {"RetVal1", "Retval2", authToken, args}; retVal[1] = new Object[] {"RetVal3", "Retval4", authToken, args}; retVal[2] = new Object[] {"RetVal5", "Retval6", authToken, args}; return retVal; } Please let me know how I can make axis2 work with axis 1.4 for the above mentioned return type!!
