Ok... this is what is happening. It seems that the name of a member
variable is affecting serialization...My objects, which were having
problems, had fields starting with a low cap "a", and continuing with a
large cap letter....
This version of nested object works fine...
public class NestedObj {
private String nestedVal;
public NestedObj()
{
nestedVal = null;
}
public String getNestedVal()
{
return anestedVal;
}
public void setNestedVal(String nestedVal)
{
this.nestedVal = nestedVal;
}
}
This version of the nested object causes serialization to skip
serialization of the object...
public class NestedObj {
private String aNestedVal;
public NestedObj()
{
aNestedVal = null;
}
public String getANestedVal()
{
return aNestedVal;
}
public void setANestedVal(String nestedVal)
{
this.aNestedVal = nestedVal;
}
}
Finally when I use this version, it works again...
public class NestedObj {
private String anestedVal;
public NestedObj()
{
anestedVal = null;
}
public String getAnestedVal()
{
return anestedVal;
}
public void setAnestedVal(String nestedVal)
{
this.anestedVal = nestedVal;
}
}
So, in conclusion, serialization seems to skip the nested object field,
when the name of the field has one small cap letter followed by a large
cap letter. This results is a get and set methods which have two caps in
a row in the name(eg. setANestedVal - "AN").
Is this a bug, or a pattern I am not aware of?
Thanks, Dave

David-
Take a look at
http://commons.apache.org/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/Pro
pert
yUtilsBean.html
specifically the copyProperties method..
copyProperties(java.lang.Object dest,
java.lang.Object orig)
As copyProperties method is a shallow copy I think you may want to
handle
*deep* copy programatically..

I have verified that I can correctly use nested return types in a POJO
service. Now I need to figure out why my more complex POJO service is
not working correctly....

Yes, I didn't show it, but my classes did have getters/setters, default
public constructor, and basically obeyed the rules of a JavaBean.

Nope this can not be happen , however you need to remember that you
class should be JavaBean (need to have getters and settes). I have
tested this and working fine , in addition to that following link will
be helpful for you to understand about Axis2 POJO.
