Hi Dan, Thanks for the reply. But still need to understand this. I am a novice in Web service and researching on various Web service use cases. The obvious and basic ones are consuming the service with the code first and contract first approach. Coming to your reply:
1. I can use the generated client and server code (and they do not use ObjectFactory or XXResponse classes) and comfortably run my services. Now as you said the ObjectFactory is checked by JAXB for xsd:any type. What situation makes use of this scenario? 2. XX and XXResponse are used as wrappers @ runtime. It happens when? I am sorry for the above questions, it may sound trivial, but need to understand the flow. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
