The best way to return raw xml data is using AXIOM I think
Here is a snippet.
public OMElement doSomething() {
OMFactory factory = OMAbstractFactory.getOMFactory();
OMElement element = Factory.createElement(myNamespace, "topelement");
element.addAttribute("somekey", "somevalue");
return element;
}
Now, I think the services.xml should have as msg receivers these pair.
#message.receiver.inout=org.apache.axis2.receivers.RawXMLINOutMessageReceiver
#message.receiver.inonly=org.apache.axis2.receivers.RawXMLINOnlyMessageReceiver

Hi,
Web service will return a SOAP xml file. By generating the client side classes
and using Axis you can map the resulting SOAP xml data into the required class
objects.

Hi,
Can anyone advise me, how return XML data from a webservice?
Also, how a client consuming this service should interpret the output, I mean
what type of data can they expect?
Thanks in advance.
Thank You,
