Hey I have a question about arrays.
In the ws-i spec it states that arrays should be defined such as...
<complexType name="StringArray">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="str" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</complexType>
And this turns out...
<StringArray>
<str>blah</str>
<str>moreblah</str>
</StringArray>
Should arrays be defined in a complexType all to themselves? Or I noticed
that Axis supports something like this...
<complexType name="CompoundObject">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="str" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
<xsd:element name="x" type="xsd:int"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</complexType>
Which translates to something like...
<CompoundObject>
<str>blah</str>
<str>moreblah</str>
<x>3</x>
</CompoundObject>
In Axis it translates to methods such as...
String[] a = compoundObject.getStr();
Integer b = compoundObject.getX();
Is it proper to declare an array as a separate object such as the first
definition? And then use it in a Compound object. Or is it ok to define an
array directly in the CompoundObject like in the second definition?
Thanks,
Chris
