-----------------------------------------
Excellent Rajesh, this example saves a lot of time and contrasts two scenarios
(working and not working).
I'm investigating the code base now to see where we can resolve this. I'll
update this Jira soon
> Allowing XML-RPC and SOAP to pass GenericValue objects to services as IN

> The existing framework allows invoking various services via XMLRPC or SOAP
> as per their argument expectations. However only basic types are handled
> like String , Boolean , Int etc. If a service is expecting a GenericValue eg:
> 'calculateProductPrice' it is not possible to invoke it via SOAP or XMLRPC.
> The reason being SOAP or XMLRPC can support Map and that is the closest
> it can provide in lieu of any custom Object that a Service might be expecting.
> A generic solution needs to be found so that the full potential of the
> plethora of
> exportable services can be utilized by external systems that looks for
> integrating and
> banking upon OfBiz via XMLRPC or SOAP.
