Serializer/DeSerializer question/Help

[Tolsch, Ed]

I'm trying to use "my own" (Castor from Exolab) serializer / deserialer to marhsall/unmarshall my xml to/from Java Beans.

 

My deploy.wsdd file looks like the following:

  <service name="WebSvcsImpl" provider="java:RPC">

 

      <parameter name="className" value="com.fmr.fesco.hw.WebSvcsImpl"/>
      <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="PingTest"/>
      <parameter name="scope" value="Request"/>

 

      <typeMapping
        xmlns:ns="http://fmr.com/hw/"
        qname="ns:FESCOHead"
        type="java:com.fmr.fesco.hw.fmrutil.FESCOHead"
        serializer="com.fmr.fesco.hw.router.utils.CastorSerializer"
        deserializer="com.fmr.fesco.hw.router.utils.CastorSerializer"
        encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
      />

Yet I get the following Class Cast Exception.  Can anyone provide any insight?  This is what I had done successfully in SOAP 2.2. Thanks in advance.
