BeanSerializer issue

[Joseph Carew]

I have a "Bean" that I am passing to the call object as an argument to my service.  The code looks like this:

 

            Options options = new Options(args);
            String message = "Default message";
            if (options.isValueSet('m') != null )
            {
                message = options.isValueSet('m');
            }
            Environment env = new Environment();
            env.setProperty(env.REALMID,"1");
            env.setProperty(env.USERNAME,"me");

 

            Service service = new Service();
            Call call = (Call) service.createCall();
            QName qn = new QName("echoWSjava", "Environment" );
            call.registerTypeMapping(Environment.class, qn,
                                     BeanSerializerFactory.class,
                                     BeanDeserializerFactory.class);
            QName sqn = new QName("echoWSjava", "String" );
            String result;

 

            call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(options.getURL()));
            call.setOperationName( new QName("echoWSjava","echoMessage"));
            call.addParameter("arg1",sqn,ParameterMode.IN);
            call.addParameter("arg2",qn,ParameterMode.IN);
            call.setReturnType(org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType.XSD_STRING);
            result = (String) call.invoke(new Object[] { message,env } );

When Axis tries to get the serializer it falls to the getSerializerAs method of BaseSerializerFactory and the tests in that method end up trying call newInstance on the BeanSerializer class.  There is no default constructor in BeanSerializer and a java.lang.InstantiationException: org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanSerializer exception is thrown (which is caught at some point and eaten so you never see the error unless you go edit Axis code and recompile, but that is another issue altogether).  Am I doing something wrong in my code?  The Environment class I am using works fine with Apache SOAP 2.3's BeanSerializer.

 

Thanks
