I don't think you have to declare the inherited fields sides and size in the
derived type Square.
Check if you have a serializer declared for Square in your generated stub.
public XxxxxStub(javax.xml.rpc.Service service) throws
org.apache.axis.AxisFault {
if (service == null) {
super.service = new org.apache.axis.client.Service();
} else {
super.service = service;
}
...
qName = new javax.xml.namespace.QName("...", "Square");
cachedSerQNames.add(qName);
cls = xxx.Square.class;
cachedSerClasses.add(cls);
cachedSerFactories.add(beansf);
cachedDeserFactories.add(beandf);
....
}
Then check with the tcpmonitor what was send back by the server.
