Hi Eric, I am also entangled at the exactly similar situation. I have Publications and Persons. I also tried retriving only persons so that it is not array of arrays. but got the same error
Can you confirm the following? 1. did you get files (when you used WSDL2Java) like getDescriptionAvailableRequest.java and getDescriptionAvailableResponse.java for function :getDescriptionAvailable and similar files for each of your functions? Since this is also a data structure, I suspect that the error is due to this getDescriptionAvailableResponse.java? 2. can you send a simple SOAP message and retrieve it successfully? I mean the error is coming only when you are using the client? 3. confirm your code in the type metadata section of property.java and Description.java files also getDescriptionAvailableResponse.java? Please read http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg09060.html. Here they say that there is a bug in the code generation that instead of ArrayOfXXX they just have XXX but for me it is ArrayOfXXX only I cannot move further due to this stupid error. Lets try to resolve it together. step by step Jin --- "E.
