So, provide a mapping for :name to String. For an example of how to do so, take a look at http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-soap/java/samples/interop/DeploymentDescriptor.xml Note: the syntax by which you do this with Apache SOAP is invalid XML. This means that you can't browse this example using modern browsers (e.g. IE6 or Mozilla 1.0) or use Xerces 2.0. However, this error is not caught by Crimson or Xerces 1.x.

Per the SOAP specification, xsi:type is optional. However, in April, I did add the code to Axis to add this information. - Sam Ruby
