Axis throws a fault about incompatible types when passed in an anyType for a base64, at least in Axis 1.1. We're supplied a WSDL to follow, but when I queried the WSDL's of the service consuming my service, who also provides the same service to others, I found that there were small inconsistencies riddled throughout the two implementations.
My only complaint with Axis would be the Axis fault which said "Incompatilbye type 'B[."' That last part doesn't make much sense. It should have said something like "Axis was passed incompatible type x for y when it expected z." -- Andy >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/10/04 01:19PM >>> ANDREW MICONE wrote: >Another lesson learned today: "never trust a client to query your WSDL before >calling you, send the right data types, or even follow the WSDL pattern they >supplied you and claim to consume." > >That was my last problem, the client had arbitrarily changed their >xsd:Base64Binary element to an xsd:AnyType.
