We are trying to write java clients that can communicate with this. The perl server takes in a hash-ref (as called in perl) or a struct...It seems that the java client can only send a vector or array. Is there a way to pass a struct? basically the xml request looks like this : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <methodCall> <methodName>process</methodName> <params> <param> <value> <struct> <member> <name>name</name> <value> <string>kevin</string> </value> </member> <member> <name>address</name> <value> <string>123 fake street</string> </value> </member> <member> <name>zip</name> <value> <string>90210</string> </value> </member> </struct> </value> </param> </params> </methodCall> any help would be cool. kevin
