Hi, Matthew.
The mapType() method is not exactly "beaming up" your object. This sets up a
definition of the
class behind your object so that the client and server know how to re-assemble it
after it's
"beamed up."
The actual sending of the object back and forth does not happen until you call
sendRequest()
method.
In mapType(), the class is a reference to your custom class. You can get this
reference with
something like
Class.forName("com.my.class.MyClass");
Namespace URI relate to the deployment descriptor for your class, which you must
define and deploy
before you can actually send object of your class back and forth. Look at the
SJDeploymentDescriptor for examples of how this is done. You can add your class do
your own
version of this file. Basically, you need to add a new <isd:map> directive to the
file. You can
copy any one of the <isd:map> directives in there already and all you have to do is
change the
javaType and qname. The javaType is the fully-qualified name of your class and the
qname can be
anything, I think, but the easiest thing to do would be to use x:[lower case class
name], like
I've done.
Then you'll use mapType as follows:
mapType("urn:sj-mastercontrolprogram", "myclass",
Class.forName("com.my.class.MyClass"));
