wscompile not generating objects correctly for schema-defined types in WSDL

Title: wscompile not generating objects correctly for schema-defined types in WSDL

I've read through a few documents on the web about creating web service methods that take XML as a parameter. Currently our web service defines that XML as a string type.
However, I've been working on trying to define them as Schema types so that my Java or .Net service will create objects for the various XML types. I've run my WSDL through .Net and it seems to generate my DataSet, Record, and Field types just fine. However, I can't get wscompile to generate the interface and objects in the same way. Currently it creates the method that takes a SOAPElement type. Not an object of type DataSet. Below is the interface I'm seeing generated:

// This class was generated by the JAXRPC SI, do not edit.
// Contents subject to change without notice.
// JAX-RPC Standard Implementation (1.1.2_01, build R40)
// Generated source version: 1.1.2

package com.webservice.client.java;

public interface IQServiceIF extends java.rmi.Remote {
public com.webservice.client.java.RunTransactionDataflowWithXmlDataResponse runTransactionDataflowWithXmlData(javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement parameters) throws
java.rmi.RemoteException;
}

The following is my Ant task for wscompile:

<target name="generate-client-stubs" description="Generate Client-Side Stubs" unless="build_web_service_stubs">
<taskdef name="wscompile" classname="com.sun.xml.rpc.tools.ant.Wscompile"/>
<wscompile
gen="true"
base="build/classes"
classpath="src"
verbose="true"
features="wsi"
config="config/config.xml"
sourceBase="build/src">
</wscompile>
</target>


Below is the WSDL file I've created. I'm using the WSDL-To-Java methodology to create this service.
I've been struggling with tihs for some time now and can't seem to get it to work. I'm not seeing anything different than what I'm seeing in your sample articles at this point.

Thanks much!
