Hmmm. I don't mind getting rid of setType all that much, as long as I can still set the type using attributes. Which means fixing that last bug I submitted :) I have a fix btw, if you would like to see it. It is pretty simple, but I am not sure it is as efficient as you would like. It is however, similar to how you set the encoding style.
I don't really want to go into my environment for using Axis, but lets just say it is not a typical environment. The interface to the users is not Java, and hence I am not using Java objects to store user input. I am building SOAPEnvelopes by hand, because of this. Which means that I would like to set everything I can (type, name, namespace, array attributes, etc.) directly in the MessageElement. So something like the example you provided will not really work for me for complex objects. I could do something like this for the base types, but for complex objects, I certainly do not have a Java object that corresponds to the data structures I am using. And I would still like to be able to set the type for these objects and other things about the object. It appears I can using attributes to set this information. Anyway this has worked very well for me thus far except for this minor little glitch of setting the type. I know this is a bit strange, but I think it very desirable to provide functionality that will allows a developer to build a SOAPEnvelope from ground up.
