Hi Doug,
Thought I'd do some tests again to verify what I'd reported, and also get
that call stack for you. I now can't seem to reproduce the problem with the
complex types, but do still see it with Maps, etc that contain arrays.
Here is the call stack:
[java] java.rmi.ServerException: Internal Server Error (deserialization
error: deserialization error: unexpected element name: expected=element,
actual=item)
[java] at
com.sun.xml.rpc.client.StreamingSender._raiseFault(StreamingSender.java:357)
[java] at
com.sun.xml.rpc.client.StreamingSender._send(StreamingSender.java:228)
[java] at com.firepond.spc.SPC_Stub.call(SPC_Stub.java:263)
[java] at test.SPCClient.useStub(Unknown Source)
[java] at test.SPCClient.main(Unknown Source)
My client is essentially doing something like this:
HashMap map = new HashMap();
String s[] = {"1", "2", "3"};
map.put( "mykey", s );
System.out.println( "Call = " + service.call(map) );
where the service interface contains a method like:
public Map call(Map map) throws RemoteException;
And the implementation class merely defines call() like this:
public Map call(Map map)
{
return map;
}
Hope this helps!
