I think I may have solved the problem. I think
there's a misspelling of "octet-stream" in line 702 of
org.apache.axis.wsdl.toJava.Utils:
else if ("application/octetstream".equals(mimeName)) {
return Constants.MIME_OCTETSTREAM;
If I use "application/octetstream" in my WSDL
WSDL2Java works. The signature of the stub is:
java.lang.Object echoAttachment( java.lang.Object )
That seems reasonable.
