I never saw */*, if it's not a legal mime format maybe other tools will be less forgiving that axis that by default when it doesn't regognize it use DataHandler. DataHandler is a Java things. As an example some platform may decide to give you a SoapPart instead and now you are stuck to parse it.

What I understand is that depending of the mime:content 'type' attribute value, different classes will be chosen by Axis for mapping: application/octet-stream --> OctetStream ; multipart/mixed --> MimeMultipart ; */* --> DataHandler ; ... >So just do <mime:content part="content" >type="application/octet-stream"/> > >You probably want to be aware of >http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-1609 if you transfer big >attachment. > > I understood that it is better to use DataHandler because of streaming and thus not having all in memory. I saw the patch to wsdl2java. But a DataHandler is exactly what I got when I changed to "*/*". So was the patch needed? Should */* be avoided for any reason?
