Java-first SOAP via HTTP GET and date

[Christian Hvid]

Hello list.

I am having some trouble sending a date in HTTP GET via a Java-first SOAP
implementation.

import java.util.Date;

@WebService()
public interface MyInterface {
    public Date test1();

    public void test2(@WebParam(name = "date") Date date);
}

public class MyImplementation implements MyInterface {
    public Date test1() {
        return new Date();
    }

    public void test2(Date date) {
        System.out.println("" + date);
    }
}

public class StartTestDims {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyImplementation implementor = new MyImplementation();
        JaxWsServerFactoryBean svrFactory = new JaxWsServerFactoryBean();
        svrFactory.setServiceClass(MyInterface.class);
        svrFactory.setAddress("http://localhost:9000/TestDims";);
        svrFactory.setServiceBean(implementor);
        svrFactory.getInInterceptors().add(new LoggingInInterceptor());
        svrFactory.getOutInterceptors().add(new LoggingOutInterceptor());
        svrFactory.create();
    }
}

When I go:

http://localhost:9000/TestDims/test1

I get:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<soap:Body>
<ns2:test1Response xmlns:ns2="http://unknown.namespace/";>
  <return>2010-09-13T14:23:30.879+02:00</return>
</ns2:test1Response>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

But when I go:

http://localhost:9000/TestDims/test2?date=2010-09-13T14:23:30.879%2B02:00

(Where %2B is the URL encoding of +) I get:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<soap:Body>
<soap:Fault>
  <faultcode>soap:Server</faultcode>
  <faultstring>argument type mismatch while invoking public abstract void
MyInterface.test2(java.util.Date) with params
[2010-09-13T14:23:30.879+02:00].</faultstring>
</soap:Fault>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

What I am doing wrong? What is the correct format for an xsd:date via HTTP
GET SOAP?

(The end-implementation will use SOAP over HTTP POST - I need this for
documentation and cross-platform testing.)
