Hello everybody,
I am just getting started with axis and I have run into a strange issue. In the BizTalk server's WSDL there is an imported schema for a "priceEnv" entity. In the "GetPrice" method definition, I get the following declaration:
<s:element name="GetPriceResponse"> <s:complexType> <s:sequence> <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="GetPriceResult"> <s:complexType> <s:sequence> <s:any namespace="http://www.tempuri.org/pricesEnv.xsd"/> </s:sequence> </s:complexType> </s:element> </s:sequence> </s:complexType> </s:element>
After generating the classes with WSDL2Java, I find that my *SOAP class contains a method getPrice with the appropriate parameters but returns a GetPriceResult object that does not contain the usual accessor methods, just a get_any method that returns a MessageElement array and all the other standard methods. However, the PriceEnv class is generated twice (once for the org.tempuri.www namespace from where the schema is imported and once for the namespace where the WSDL comes from).
When querying the webservice by hand, I find that the GetPrice method returns a priceEnv entity with a schema and a diffgram containing the real data. How do I get the appropriate priceEnv object from the query so that I have a real object mapping without dealing with all the XML manually? I am thinking of a situation like the following:
In another test setup that I used previously with Axis, I had a service definition in the WSDL for Customer objects that looked like:
<s:element name="GetCustomerResponse">
<s:complexType>
<s:sequence>
<s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="GetCustomerResult" type="tns:Customer"/>
</s:sequence>
</s:complexType>
</s:element>
The customer object itself was defined inside the WSDL and Axis WSDL2Java generated perfect mappings for the Java equivalents, so that I could use myCustomer.getName() etc.
Is there a bug in the server implementation or am I doing something fundamentally wrong or ignoring the obvious?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ralph Scheuer
