Hi,
I have two services, both return vectors of
objects. The first, called getAllDepartments(), returns Department objects.
The second getAllEmployees() returns Employee objects. Both Department and
Employee are very simple classes, containing private data and get and set
methods.
When I call getAllDepartment(), the return
message is:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK

This is perfect, great, just what I want.
However, when I call getAllEmployees(), I get this message:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml;

It's empty. I wrote a test driver for my service
to make sure it is returning something, and it is. Here's the mapping code in
the client:
SOAPMappingRegistry smr = new
SOAPMappingRegistry();
BeanSerializer beanSer = new
BeanSerializer();
smr.mapTypes(Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC,
new QName("urn:Personnel",
"com.transync.data.Employee"),
com.transync.data.Employee.class, beanSer, beanSer);
smr.mapTypes(Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC,
new QName("urn:Personnel",
"com.transync.data.Department"),
com.transync.data.Department.class, beanSer, beanSer);
And here's the mapping in
DeploymentDescriptor.xml:
<isd:mappings>
<isd:map
encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:x="urn:Personnel"
qname="x:com.transync.data.Employee"
javaType="com.transync.data.Employee"
java2XMLClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.BeanSerializer"
xml2JavaClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.BeanSerializer"/>
<isd:map
encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:x="urn:Personnel"
qname="x:com.transync.data.Department"
javaType="com.transync.data.Department"
java2XMLClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.BeanSerializer"
xml2JavaClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.BeanSerializer"/>
</isd:mappings>
Any ideas on why these two very similar objects
are behaving differently would be very welcome.
Thanks,
Chris
