Web services are strongly typed, you marshall data using an XML
description.
To not specify datatypes you could conceivably use xsd:any, but this still
requires some knowledge of what is there to deserialize it and I would
suggest
staying away from that approach until you know it is explictly needed.
You mean i should avoid using non-basic datatypes in argument/return values

I would suggest starting here, it addresses all of your questions and
provides
a lot of context as well:
http://gdp.globus.org/gt4-tutorial/
Actually, i'm following GT4 Book. And although they give a few explanations
about that issue, they don't enter indetails. Hence my question :)
Cheers,
Francois.
