RE: collection of complex types

[Ephemeris Lappis]

Hello.   With few details about your model, i'm not sure my answer will help you... But i'm currently doing new tests with different kinds of objects, and particularly agregations with arrays of complex types that also have arrays of objects, etc... It seems that all that fnally works rather well with axis.   First, instead of collections (or similar classes), you should design your exchange objects with arrays : arrays are easiy translated to and from xml schema.   Then, avoid complex objects dependancies, such as inheritance. Indeed, future clients of your services, because of their language or tools, will not be able to handle them. I'd prefer to clearly separate my web services from the applications they give access to. The applications components generally provide complex classes that use all their native language facilities. The web service layer provides a simplified view of this model, with a different 'grain', and with flat complex types...   Did that help you ?   Regards. -- Ephemeris Lappis   -----Original Message----- From: Carolyn Vo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 9:43 PM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: collection of complex types We are trying to figure out how to access from C# an object that has a collection of complex types, which in turn includes a collection of complex types.  These complex types are inner classes of the parent object.  Is this possible?   Thanks, Carolyn
