http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/xml-soap/java/docs/guide/se
rializer.html is the latest documentation on type mapping; I just added
a client code snippet from the addressbook sample. This page has a link
to show the general addition that must be made to the deployment
descriptor. For a concrete example, look at the address book sample
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/xml-soap/java/samples/addre
ssbook/DeploymentDescriptor.xml.
That covers mapping and the use of BeanSerializer. For a custom
serializer, my best recommendation is the same as the docs: look at the
source of one of the existing ones. And, as always, Google might lead
you to something useful.

Subject: Need help creating a custom type mapping
Hey guys,
Ok, I'm pretty lost. I keep looking at vartious documentation but either
they seem to leave out important pieces of the puzzle or they're not
doing things in the same way I am.
First of all, I'm writing a client/server app using Apache SOAP (latest
version) and Java. I'm utilizing the SOAP-RPC method calling
proceedures.
So, on my client side I have something that looks like this:
public String login(SecurityAssertion sa, String clienttype)
{
String returnValue = null;
try
{
Call call = new Call();
call.setTargetObjectURI(targetObjectURI);
call.setMethodName("login");
call.setEncodingStyleURI(Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC);
Vector v = new Vector(2);
v.addElement(new Parameter("sa", SecurityAssertion.class, sa, null));
v.addElement(new Parameter("clienttype", String.class, clienttype,
null));
call.setParams(v);
Response r = call.invoke(url, "");
if (!r.generatedFault())
{
Parameter returnParameter = r.getReturnValue();
returnValue = returnParameter.getValue();
}
else
{
System.out.println("Fault encountered : " +
r.getFault().getFaultString());
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
return (String) returnValue;
}
What I can't seem to figure out is how to create a mapping for how that
"SecurityAssertion" class should be encoded, etc. I understand that
there is a server side and a client side mechanism that must be done,
but I can't seem to find good CLEAR documentation with a complete step
by step example on how to do this. I've currently got the
SecurityAssertion class setup up as a Javabean, but I'm probably going
to have to make it not one in the future, so some help in how to build
the custom serializer/deserializer would be helpful as well.
Thanks!
