[xfire-user] getting complex types using xfire client

[Michael Drejer]

I'm defining a complex type in wsdl and using xfire eclipse plugin to generate 
java sources. Using tcptrace to see the communication between client and 
webservice i can see that there is actually an xml document returned with the 
expected test-data. Still, making a client by either doing:

PersonService service = new PersonServiceClient().getPersonServiceSOAPDev();

or

Service serviceModel = new AnnotationServiceFactory().create
(PersonService.class);
PersonService service = (PersonService) new XFireProxyFactory().create
(serviceModel, "http://localhost/webservicetest/services/PersonService";);

and using the methods in 'service' returns an object of the xfire generated 
class but with null values. For compare I've made a webservice in same wsdl 
with simple type returned, and this works as expected.

So what have i done wrong or is it simply not possible to get complex types 
returned from webservice using client?

for reference:


xml returned be the webservice (simple type):

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; 
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-
instance"><soap:Body><GetPersonFirstnameResponse 
xmlns="http://localhost/services/person";><personFirstname 
xmlns="">Michael</personFirstname></GetPersonFirstnameResponse></soap:Body></soa
p:Envelope>


xml returned be the webservice (complex type):

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; 
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-
instance"><soap:Body><GetPersonResponse 
xmlns="http://localhost/services/person";>
b0
<ns2:person 
xmlns:ns2="http://localhost/services/person";><id>1</id><firstname>John</firstnam
e><lastname>Jensen</lastname><active>true</active><country>dk</country></ns2:per
son>
30
</GetPersonResponse></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>
