Ok, I don't really know if the problem is regarding axis2 or not. I'm using a rpc/literal wsdl.
The send/request part of the web service, using soap, is working well. The problem is, when I have a look at the response sent by axis2 (1.4), I can see that some elements have a xsi:type in the declaration, like : <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <soapenv:Body> <ns3:SearchVslUserResponse xmlns:ns3=" http://url.com/2008/webservice/2008/User/operations/"> <UserList xmlns:ns2="http://url.com/2008/schema/2008/UserTypes" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="ns2:UserListType"> <PagingData> <Page xsi:nil="1" /> <PageSize xsi:nil="1" /> <NumberOfRecords>1</NumberOfRecords> </PagingData> <User xsi:type="ns2:UserType"> <UserId>000774</UserId> </User> </UserList> </ns3:SearchVslUserResponse> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> As you can see, the UserId have no xsi:type , but the VslUser has . In fact, I really need to delete the "xsi:type=...." because the soap response is retrieved by a php page which create an array using the soap tags. I can't modify the php files, and they are looking for a <User> tag, which here is not present.. because of the "xsi:type=....". Is there any way to delete the "xsi:type=...." tag ?? the User is defined in a schema by : <complexType name="UserType"> <complexContent> <extension base="tns:UserBase"> <sequence> <element name="UserId" type="int"/> </sequence> </extension> </complexContent> </complexType> And I can modify the extension or the way it is created.. because of the number of similar cases in my files. Does anyone have an idea of what can I do ? As I understood, if the element is not a root element (like the UserType because it extend the UserBase), the soap part will by described with the xsi:type. before, with axis 1.4, I did not have this problem, so I think it's because of axis2 , but don't really know what to do.. Any ideas would be greateful.. :) thanks at least to have read this message :) Thanks Pierre
