Actually, passing a Map is actually not a common thing to do with
JAX-WS/JAXB as it's a non-trivial thing to do with JAXB.
Actually, looking at your WSDL, Axis2 isn't doing it correctly either.
If you look at the schema:
<xs:complexType name="Map">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0"
name="empty"
type="xs:boolean"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
That sure doesn't describe a usefule map to me. On the wire, it will
just say if it's empty or not. Not too useful.
Anyway, with CXF 2.1 snapshots (our trunk) you can pass maps. However,
you have to defines some JAXB types that completely model the schema
that you want and then an adapter to convert the Map to/from those
types. Maps are not "automatic". The latest snapshots have a
sample (java_first_jaxws) that show this in action.
