You are right WSDL2Java cannot anticipate anything! Thanks for the code chunk. Sylvain.

I think the problem is that WSDL2Java can't anticipate how you're planning to use the XML that's returned. Anyway, it's easy enough to get the entire body of a SOAP message returned by some service. Attached is an example client that does this. Instantiate the service with a String that holds the XML of the message you want to send to the service; then run makeCall(). It returns a String representation of the SOAP body returned.
