Here is the solution for you, Tony!

Hi Tony Blair,

Please take a look at the attached classes, WSDD file, request, response etc…

There is nothing wrong with the axis neither any bug. The issue was with your WSDD file. I wrote it little different way. Method signature etc are same just added the package name and serializable interface for your Request class.

The sample request generated by WebServiceTester tool for the WSDL for your service is attached at the end of this email together with the WSDD file and the response received from the web service. I did not use the java client just used WebServiceTester tool to invoke the web service. If you need client code let me know.

Just compile this code and stick those classes in WEB-INF/classes dir. Paste the WSDD entry in your server-config.wsdd. Restart the tomcat.

Good luck. (By any chance, Are you UK Prime Minister, Mr. Tony Blair??)

For those who are interested in Web Services testing:

-----------------------------------------------------

I found that WebServiceTester from Optimyz software is a very good tool for testing any types of web services, and I'm great fan of this tool. It supports all types of web services, and all simple and complex types and it very usable than any other tool in the market I ever used/evaluated. It automatically generates the SOAP requests and invokes the intended web services. It can perform functional, regression and load testing of web services. Result analysis and status reporting is just wonderful. I'll highly recommend this tool for testing web services, saves lots of time and efforts in testing web services.

Subject: Re: SimpleDeserializer error

Hi Venkatesh,

Thanks for the suggestion. I slightly modified my code from yesterday where my bean takes a Collection and my service also returns a Collection. Based on the error I get I am not sure if the ser/deser are the problem. Here is the error and thanks for all the help you can give me.

-----------error msg-------------

Error : org.xml.sax.SAXException: Bad types (class [Ljava.lang.Object; -> class
apacheaxis.Param)

-------------------The first bean------------------

public class Request
{
   / ********** this bean now handles collections*************/
    private Collection params=null

    public Collection getParams()
    { return params; }
    public void setParams(Collection data)
    { params=data; }

}
------------- The 2nd bean ------------

public class Param implements java.io.Serializable
{
/********** this class remains unchanged **************/
    private String name=null;
    private Object value=null;
    public String getName()
    { return name; }
    public void setName(String data)
    { name = data; }

    public Object getValue()
    { return value; }
    public void setValue(Object data)
    { value=data; }
}

-------------- The service --------------

public class PublicService3
{

/********Service now is returning Collection *******/
public Collection getSeveralBusinessLocation(Request req){

Collection busLoc = new ArrayList(2);

        Param line1= new Param();
        line1.setName("LINE_1");
        line1.setValue("121 River Street");
        busLoc.add(line1);

        Param name= new Param();
        name.setName("BUSINESS_NAME");
        name.setValue("Marsh");
        busLoc.add(name);

return busLoc;
}
}

------------Client ---------

public class Client
{
    public static void main(String [] args) throws Exception
    {
        Options options = new Options(args);

        Request req = new Request();

        Service service = new Service();
        Call     call    = (Call) service.createCall();
        QName    qn      = new QName( "urn:PublicService3", "Request" );

        call.registerTypeMapping(Request.class, qn,
                      new org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanSerializerFactory(Request.class, qn),
                      new org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanDeserializerFactory(Request.class, qn));

        call.registerTypeMapping(Param.class, qn,
                      new org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanSerializerFactory(Param.class, qn),
                      new org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanDeserializerFactory(Param.class, qn));

        Collection result=null;
        try {
            call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(options.getURL()) );
            call.setOperationName( new QName("PublicService3", "getSeveralBusinessLocation") );
            call.addParameter( "arg1", qn, ParameterMode.IN );
            call.setReturnClass(Param.class);
            result = (ArrayList) call.invoke( new Object[] { req } );
        } catch (AxisFault fault) {
          String error = "Error : " + fault.toString();
          System.out.println(error);
        }
        System.out.println("Name               Value");
        System.out.println("------------------------");
        Iterator itr = result.iterator();
        while(itr.hasNext()){
            Param p = (Param)itr.next();
            String name = p.getName();
            String value = (String)p.getValue();
            System.out.println(name+"     &nbs p; "+value);

}
}
}

Have a look at org.apache.axis.encoding.ser package. It contains all the
serializers and deserializers for some collecion objects.
