Gary, check out http://www.perfectxml.com/articles/xml/soapguide.asp. That shows how to solve your specifc "result" problem (short answer - you have to code the client to "know" what to expect). The equivalent in a deployment descriptor, for use at the server is: <!-- "parameter name" aliases We need "parameter name" aliases for some types because .NET does not pass the type when it passes a null object; all we get is the parameter name (in an unqualified namespace). These mappings do NOT specify a javaType or java2XMLClassName, so that they are never used for outgoing serialization. --> <isd:map encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; qname=":someStringParametersName"
xml2JavaClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.StringDeserializer"/> ..Dave Reid -----Original Message----- From: Gary K.

How do you deserialize? <result xsi:null="1"/> Is it an integer, string or boolean???
