I've asked the following question four different ways and still no response (I'm getting a ghost town feeling about this).
I need to get this issue resolved in the next two days or give up on using Axis. Here is my issue: I am using Axis to query a service that it outside of my control. The quering goes fine and the service returns some XML. The XML is not formatted properly though. Axis blows up on it (child element found error). I need to find a way to manipulate the XML (i.e. fix it) so that Axis doesn't blow up on it. I'm guessing that I need to put my own object in a handler chain. Is this correct? I tried registering my own type map with my own deserializer but it never uses it. It always uses SimpleDeserializer. I emailed Rich Scheuerle (one of the axis developers) and he was going to help me but he has not responded in a few days. Please, I'd really like to use Axis for this project but if there is no way to get to this XML before Axis blows up at least someone tell me. I'm new to SOAP and Axis. Thank you... -- Sloan
