My intention is to build a generic web service that can take any type

to map it to its real class so I can cast and perform operations on it
as defined by the XML (this is not SOAP - its BePel)
Then what you have to do is write your service impl class to take
OMElement as method parameter , then om element can be anything. So your
method signature will be look like below;
public OMElement echo(OMElement ele){
///// do smt
}
Thanks

Hi Deepal,
Thank-you for your reply. I have been looking at the OMElement and its
very abstract. The model appears to be an interface to the underlying
XML pull-parser.
Is there a less abstract way of dealing with SOAP in Axis 2.
Essentially, I want to be able to transfer a set of objects from one
server to another without having to worry about the implementation
details. I thought with the advent of Castor and XStream this would be
reasonably straightforward.
Essentially, I want a service that can take in three variables: 2
strings and an object. So it could be called with:
String namespace="namespace";
String function="function";
Object[] args={ namespace, function, new Date() };
Object[] args={ namespace, function, "hello world"};
Object[] args={ namespace, function, new ComplexObject(1,2,3,"hello" };
And the transport layer deals with the necessary details - however it
seems much harder to do, and harder to figure out than I ever imagined!
Thanks,
John
