I have not followed your discution because I just got connected to the
mailing list, but as far as I can remember, we have some major problems with
the fact that SOAP does not support polymorphism. There is a fix, but for
this you must change some code (like adding 2 lines) into RPCRouter (I think)
file.
If you are interested, then tell me and I will look for this. The correction
is like this:
if the return object is not null then
try to use the Class of the object and encode it by its class,
else
just encode a null object based on the signature of the method.
There is a flow even with this approach. If you have an Base object and a
Child extends Base. You have the BAse object registered to a serializer, but
the Child is not, then, if you are gonna return the Child instead of the
Base, it will just tell you that you have not registered the Child object!!!
Fault : correct.
So you have to register the Child object and then it works.
Hope it helps
