If you want your return value to be a User object, then that should be
your return structure, not getUserResponse. i.e.,
<soapenv:Body>
<user>
<name>John Smith</name>
<address>10 Main St.</address>
</user>
</soapenv:Body>
The output message should be defined so:
<wsdl:message name="getUserResponse">
<wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:user"/>
</wsdl:message>
