Amila, I am having the same issue using the RC2 version. With WSDL approach where I generate the service and client stubs, it works quite well. The problem is with the POJO approach. I noticed that xsi:type is missing in the xml with this approach.

What is the version you use? if you have problems with axis2-1.1.1 please have a look at with the RC2. Dennis Sosnoski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Sathija, With this, as with most aspects of schema support, it comes down to the actual data binding framework you're using. JiBX supports polymorphism using the equivalent of schema substitution groups (where different element names are used to distinguish between the different types of derived structures). I believe XMLBeans has very good support for polymorphism using type substitution (where the element name is always the same, but the actual type is given in the instance document using an xsi:type="..." attribute of the element), though it has a more difficult time with substitution groups. I don't know what form of support ADB provides for polymorphism. - Dennis Dennis M.
