RE: how to deserialize into bean

[George Jagodzinski]

There are many times when it is necessary to deserialize xml manually. I do not have axis on both sides, and I am receiving custom xml attachments that I need to deserialize into beans, so this is why I am going down this road. I have  not found any class in axis that allows for this functionality without constructing an entire envelope etc..... I could be wrong, but I have wasted enough time looking so I am just writing it in. I don't know if this would be of any use to anyone else, but I will post it once I am done   --George [George Jagodzinski]  -----Original Message----- From: Akhil Gupta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 04, 2003 8:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: how to deserialize into bean Hi George   My understanding is as follows:-   a) If you are using Axis on both ends to talk between client/server then you don't need to do any XML-Bean or vice versa.   b) what you will need to do is set a BeanSerailizer/BeanDeserializer in your wsdd file that you will be deploy in servlet engine. And then when Axis will recieve the data it will convert in to appropriate form.   You can have a look at the source for the class org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanDeserializer  if it helps.   Akhil
