typecast errors when arrays are returned
----------------------------------------

                 Key: XMLRPC-129
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-129
             Project: XML-RPC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Source
    Affects Versions: 3.0
         Environment: linux, java 1.4.2
            Reporter: kamin



Java throws a ClassCastException when an array return value is cast to a typed 
array, for XML-RPC functions that return arrays.

For example, the function

public Integer[] foo(Integer[] val){ return val; }

will work fine with the following client code:

Integer[] param = new Integer[5];
Object[] result = (Object[])server.execute("Server.foo", param);

But the following will throw a class cast exception

Integer[] param = new Integer[5];
Integer[] result = (Integer[])server.execute("Server.foo", param);


This error was first documented on the mailing list in this thread:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ws-xmlrpc-dev/200609.mbox/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

The response to the email suggests that this should be easy to fix.
