Re: Return Array of Own Type

[Tino Schöllhorn]

Hey - I just found out. After a long time of struggling.

How sad, that this part is not better documented at the Axis-Website.

With regards

Hi there,

I am fairly new to Axis. But so far everything (exception the following issue) is working fine.

I defined a webservice and made some tests roughly it has the following interface:

class MyService {
    public String getTheString();

    public String[] getTheStringArray();

    public MyType getMyType();

    public MyType[] getMyTypes();
}

So far so good. Now the thing is - that the first 3 methods are working fine. I even can serialize/deserialize an object of type MyType. But now I am stuck an the last method where I want to get an array of MyTypes.

As I understand I should have to register a type mapping or something like that - but I can not find an example or a good explanation how to do that. Perhaps somone has a hint how and where I can get the information.

Thanks a lot
