Hi there,
I have a situation where I'm programatically creating a WebService.
I ran across the same problem as Enrico (in the thread below) in that I couldn't find an "elegant" way to register Bean (de)Serializers for my complex objects.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=108444847331320&w=2
After searching some more through the archives I found mentions of the "doAutoTypes" flag hidden in the TypeMappingImpl class. This seems to do exactly what I want, defaulting to the bean serializer when none can be found.
I couldn't get it work, however, outside copying the source and using "custom" version of TypeMappingImpl in my source tree that defaults the auto typing to true.
This is really not desirable so I was wondering if there was any other way to do this? I think this is the same problem as http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=107788227613566&w=2 from about 9 months ago, but maybe something has happened since?
If there is not a way, I'd be happy to submit a patch that optionally reads the doAutoTypes from the AxisProperties when TypeMappingImpl is instantiated.
Any thoughts anyone? Anyone used auto typing successfully? Seems curious that such a feature would be so well hidden from view...
cheers
Mark C
