POSTing customer using REST

[Mansour Raad]

Given the customer http rest sample, I defined a spring config with  
the following endpoint:

<jaxws:endpoint
        id="customerServiceXML"
        implementor="com.esri.aws.CustomerService"
        address="/xml"
        bindingUri="http://apache.org/cxf/binding/http";>
        <jaxws:serviceFactory>
            <bean  
class="org.apache.cxf.jaxws.support.JaxWsServiceFactoryBean">
                <property name="wrapped" value="false"/>
            </bean>
        </jaxws:serviceFactory>
    </jaxws:endpoint>
I'm bootstrapping CXF from tomcat using the following web.xml

    <context-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>classpath:applicationContext.xml</param-value>
    </context-param>

    <listener>
        <display-name>Spring Context Loader</display-name>
        <listener- 
class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener- 
class>
    </listener>

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet</ 
servlet-class>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/cxf/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

When I post a request using

wget --post-file add.xml http://localhost:8080/cxf/xml/customers

I can see the function being called, however the name is null in the  
customer argument !!!! any clues ????

Thanks.
