i am new to xmlrpc, and i found that if i want to return an array from the server side, the client side's return value will be an Object, not Object[]. of course the actually type of the return value is an Object[], but java just does not allow you to cast it back to an Object[]. (it throws an ClassCastException). So if i use dynamic client proxy, it result in a CCE; and if i use XmlRpcClient, i still can not cast the return value as below: String[] result = (String[]) client.execute(...); instead, i have to use reflection to operate on the return value. Is there any better solution? or could this be build into the framework? that's, the framework just return an array as Object if it find the actual type is an array. BTW: xmlrpc's parser interface's getResult() method just return an plain Object, but i found the following code snip works under JDK 5.0: Object returnArray() { return new String[]; } String[] result = (String[]) returnArray(); is it possible that the paser return either a object, or an array, depend on the actual type of the result using reflection, as Object like the example above?
