Anand,
Thanks for your reply. Just to clarify - I DO want the elements of the SOAP body to have the XSI attributes. As I mentioned in my original message, I have no control over the Axis jar (which includes the client-config.wsdd file) that I must use. I have tried several ways to force the XSI attributes to be included, including: call.setScopedProperty( Call.SEND_TYPE_ATTR, Boolean.TRUE ); call.getMessageContext().setProperty( AxisEngine.PROP_SEND_XSI, Boolean.TRUE ); None of these cause the elements of the SOAP body to have the XSI attributes on them. I have started digging through the Axis source code but haven't yet figured out what I need to do. Does anyone know how to force this behavior? Thanks again.

Find out your Axis client's client-config.wsdd file. In that, there may be a tag called <globalConfiguration>. Inside that, add the following XML segment. <!-- Attempt to send correct namespaces for string arrays. --> <parameter name="sendXsiTypes" value="false" /> Can't guarantee whether it'll work or not, but it may remove the xsi namespace. Good luck! Anand On Tue, 20 Jul 2004, Anthony Piazza wrote: I am using Axis as a client to a web service that uses WASP. The problem I am having is that the service doesn't work with the more recent versions of Axis (1.1). It turns out that the app server (JBoss) we are using includes the latest version of Axis as part of it's standard deployment (which I have no control over). If I just delete the jars that are deployed with the app server, then it finds my older Axis-related jars and everything works correctly. I used a tcp monitoring tool to see what the difference is between the messages that get sent by the client. Here is what the SOAP body looks like when using Axis 1.1: <soapenv:Body> <userName xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">tony</userName> <password xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">password</password> <imname xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">pedev8</imname> <bufferType xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">BUFFER_MODE_DEFAULT</bufferType> <connectionId xsi:type="xsd:long" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">0</connectionId> </soapenv:Body> Here is what the SOAP body looks like when using Axis 1.0: <soapenv:Body> <userName xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">tony</userName> <password xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">password</password> <imname xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">pedev8</imname> <ns1:bufferType xsi:type="ns1:IMBufferType" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com" xmlns:ns1="http://imapi.atp.com">BUFFER_MODE_DEFAULT</ns1:bufferType> <connectionId xsi:type="xsd:long" xmlns="http://imapi.atp.com">0</connectionId> </soapenv:Body> You can probably see that the difference has to do with the xsi:type info that is included with the string parameters and the namespace declaration that is used on the bufferType parameter. I am stuck with having to work with the version 1.1 Axis-related jars that are included with our app server. Here is my question: Can I make Axis 1.1 generate a SOAP body that looks like one generated by Axis 1.0? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
