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

Hi Rajesh,

You did a great job already with the test scripts. That saved me a lot of time 
in getting the environment setup for testing.

I wish I can tell you there is a quick solution, but it's not very simple. The 
logic is bigger than I expected, so I am still in "exploring" phase. I want to 
find a clean solution that works for hopefully all scenarios, not just XML-RPC. 
If we're stuck, however, then maybe we go for XML-RPC and SOAP event handlers 
only, not sure! I'll keep you posted.

> 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.
