DynamicClient fails to send an array of String
----------------------------------------------
Key: CXF-3501
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3501
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.4
Environment: JaxWsDynamicClientFactory and Tomcat 6.
Reporter: Martin Thurau
I ran into some trouble using {{JaxWsDynamicClientFactory}} to access a SOAP
service which signature is unknown a compile time and is passed to my code,
from an external part at runtime. Following is a minimal example to reproduce
the problem.
The service defines the following operation:
@WebMethod(operationName="init")
public void initValueNotNull(
@WebParam(name="values")String[] values);
I generate a SOAP service and a corresponding WSDL from this by using
{{org.apache.cxf.tools.java2ws.JavaToWS}}. Then I generate a WAR file and
deploy this to tomcat.
Now I want to use {{JaxWsDynamicClientFactory}} to access this service:
{{JaxWsDynamicClientFactory dcf = JaxWsDynamicClientFactory.newInstance();}}
{{Client client = dcf.createClient(new
URL("http://localhost:8080/dserv/ArrayService?wsdl";));}}
{{String[] values = new String[] { "foobar", "something" };}}
{{client.invoke("init", values);}}
In the implementation of the service I have the following code:
@Override
public void initValueNotNull(String[] values) {
System.out.println("Got values: " + Arrays.asList(values));
}
I would expect, that the two strings from the client get ouputted. Instead I
simple see {{Got values: []}}.
If I look at the SOAP-message that get exchanged, I see the this:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<soap:Body>
<ns1:init xmlns:ns1="de.fhl.dserv.ws">
<values xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xsi:type="xs:string">foobar</values>
</ns1:init>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
So somewhere and somehow the array of strings get transformed in a single
string (which happens to be the first element of the original array).

I have created a demo project and uploaded it to
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/338429/CXF_Bug.zip
Included is a ant file to compile and build the service using {{ant build}} and
execute the client using {{ant client}}
