Pablo,
You're right, AXIS and flex have both the serializers and
deserializers to handle this. You dont need to go sending actual XML!
I looked over web services code from a couple of projects and from
what I found looking quickly I only say examples of returning an array
not sending one. But I dont think that's in play here. I think there
is an AXIS configuration issue. We know this works propertly. We
also know that you will have much more luck in Flex 1.5 if you are
using RPC/Encoded style rather then Document/Literal style for the
service itself.
Can I see your WSDD? THe one other issue we did have that was
specific to arrays was the configuration of the bean serializer in the
WSDD for Axis. For instance we found this setup worked well.
<service name="Assessments" provider="java:RPC" style="rpc"
use="encoded">
<parameter name="className"
value="com.lifeoptions.assessment.AssessmentsImpl"/>
<parameter name="allowedMethods" value="*"/>
<parameter name="wsdlServicePort" value="Assessments"/>
<beanMapping qname="myNS:Assessments"
xmlns:myNS="urn:AssessmentsImpl"
languageSpecificType="java:com.lifeoptions.assessment.Assessments"/>
</service>
Using the "shortcut" beatMapping was the key here. Also again note
the "style" and "use" attributes for the service.
I can say with confidence that array indeed work.
