My
reasons are:
1) I didn't want to "serialize" all properties of
my objects.
2) I think the BeanSerializer is case sensitive
for property names, and I'm working with clients developed in other languages
that aren't.
3) I wanted to have complete control and
understand exactly what was going on <g>

Subject: Why write a serializer/deserializer ??
Hi,
Sorry for my ignorance as I'm a new-comer to SOAP. I've been reading the documentation on Apache's SOAP implementation and was wondering why you would write a serializer/deserializer when you could just use the BeanSerializer. It seems to be able to handle any java bean.
Is there any reason a java bean wouldn't work with the BeanSerializer ? Any reason why you wouldn't use a java bean ?
I know I'm obviously missing something, but it would be great if someone could tell me what it is.
Thanks.
