Thanks for the idea, but if add urn: to the beanMapping and use the urn: namespace on the client it still throws the same error. Has anyone else had any luck or experience with returning a bean that has an array of beans inside it? Does axis need to be told that one class holds members of another class, or should axis just deserialize bean objects as it finds them no matter what?
Thanks for any ideas/help/thoughts, and especially answers. -----Original Message----- From: Olivier Gauwin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 2:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: deserializing a bean wrapped array of beans Hi David, I'm not sure your namespaces are well-formed. Try to add "urn:" at the beginning of your namespaces ("urn:ProductDbHelper" instead of "ProductDbHelper", etc).
