The current nightly build of Apache SOAP serializes ArrayList automatically. You would need to register a serializer for MyObject. If it follows the bean pattern, just use the BeanSerializer in a mapType call.
If you want to use an earlier version of Apache SOAP, then you must write a serializer for ArrayList and call mapType for it as well.
