I've never used the web service generation tools in Eclipse but I can imagine if you start with a class that has a method that takes a String parameter, Eclipse isn't going to know that that String is really XML.
I'd recommend you start designing your service from WSDL, then get Axis to auto-generate the code stubs. For the WSDL, start by creating a schema for your XML document - www.w3schools.com have some good tutorials to start with. IBM have some very good tutorials on web services and Java, see http://www-130.ibm.com/developerworks/java. Hope that helps, Chris. -----Original Message----- From: Plorks mail [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 31 August 2005 11:20 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: xml with strange characters so how can i redeig myservce to work correctly with doc/lit and axis >From: Guy Rixon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: RE: xml with strange characters >Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 10:34:38 +0100 (BST) > >On Wed, 31 Aug 2005, Plorks mail wrote: > > > > > I use document/literal sytle > >You MIS-use it.
