Hi,

These days I am doing the inter-operation with WCF , and I have found 
an issue about SOAP message that CXF did is different from what WCF did.

For example, the request message element is:

<xs:element name="inList" nillable="true" type="q3:ArrayOfstring"/>

then if we pass the null value to it, and then invoke the method.

CXF would send the SOAP message like:

--------------------------------------
<soap:Envelope 
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";><soap:Body></soap:Body></soap:Envelope> 

--------------------------------------

In this situation, the server can't find the accordingly server-side 
method, so it will throw a Fault to client.

but for WCF, the client would send SOAP message like:
-----------------------------------------------------------
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<s:Body><inList 
xmlns:d3p1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/Arrays"; 
i:nil="true" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"; /></s:Body>
</soap:Envelop>
----------------------------------------------------

I am not sure which way is better to go? In my example, It is the 
Document/Literal Bare mode, does anyone know that this scenario is 
against the WS-I BP, I haven't found a rule in the WS-I BP about this 
yet.

Thanks
Jeff
