Hi Keith/Depal
I had read that article and I beleive still I have few questions on this:

Whats an "in-only operation" - is it mapping to an operation like void
test(OMElement om) on the Service? I tried that operation type with
sendReceive and it worked [the service was also deployed in axis2 with
RawXMLInOut....] - so when you say

"sendReceive has designed to invoke
in-out it is not recommended to use that to invoke in-only operation and
if you do so you will get exception as well,"

I didnt get an exception - so do you say that I should not use sendReceive
as not getting exception is a bug??

Ideally I would like to ask this question -
I have a service which has on operation
public OMElement test(OMElement)

This method might return null for some cases of invocation. But I just didnt
want to have 2 separate methods one return void and another return
OMElement. So there is just one method [as above].

Now I have deployed this service in Axis2 and associated the operation with
RawXMLInOutReceive...

Now starts the client part:
I am using only sendReceive and tested both the cases of null return and non
null return on that service and everything works fine.

Is this right? or you think this is a bug and I am just lucky to get it
working?

thanks
Anamitra
