Hi, Yes you are right superclass could not be cast to subclass, but in my example I am passing Subclass to the method which takes Superclass as an argument, which is fine.

As a result I am not getting values present on ObjectSubClass and getting only values defined in superclass ObjectSuperClass. hi, may be i'm wrong, i'm still a newbe here. :) but, didn't the casting of the superclass object to the subclass object work? thanks, Same structure worked fine in axis1 ans xsi:type was respected. Maybe it is some configuration in axis2. I would be really thankful for any help. -- Supun Malinga, Software Engineer, WSO2 Inc. http://wso2.com http://wso2.org email - [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> mobile - 071 56 91 321
