Only if the user actually implements the ping-handling code themselves, and checks the various conditions that can go wrong in the operation of the service code. Was that the intention, that this be exposed to the user to implement? I don't know see offhand how this would work, given that somewhere around 95% of Axis2 services are using generated code. Just having it go to a MessageReceiver default implementation seems to add zero value beyond what you get by querying the admin service.
There is a simple value that can be had from going to the MR - the MR can try to instantiate the Java object. This at least tests a few of the major classpath issues that you might get from a service deployer. Ideally we could also generate a ping() method on skeletons that would encourage users to write a more thorough test. We could use reflection to invoke it if it exists. Paul
