I deployed a simple web service as a POJO to both axis2 1.2 and axis2 1.4. This service basically echoes back an object which demonstrates inheritance. In this example, MWSAttributeObjectInfo is a subclass of MWSObjectInfo. To create the client I used wsdl2java against the deployed service.
When I invoked the echoAttrObjInfo method, which simply passes in MWSAttributeObjectInfo, and receives the same MWSAttributeObjectInfo back, I received an "Unexpected subelement arrayAttributeForms" in Axis2 1.2, and "Unexpected subelement objCreationTime" in Axis2 1.4. The client serialized the object to the server with MWSObjectInfo (superclass) fields first, followed by subclass fields (rest of MWSAttributeObjectInfo - the array). The server responded by passing back the object with the subclass fields first (the array), followed by superclass fields (MWSObjectInfo). This caused an exception in the client. Axis2 1.2 detected that the array shouldn't come first. Axis2 1.4 didn't see the error until after the array was processed, getting an exception on the first field after the array(objCreationTime). Is this a known bug? I tried a subclass with simple fields (no array), and no error was generated.
