Thank you for the clarifications, Kathy. Are you saying that the 2.0 draft
of JAX-RPC discourages the use of doc/literal web services in general, or
only their use with DII?

Ryan-
Call.invokeOneWay() goes through the same code path as in the static stub
case- You are saying that it blocks? The difference may be in that with dii
with wsdl, JAXRPC-RI actually is building a dataStructure of the wsdl in
memory and attempting to build a dynamic serializer for the given parameter
types. In this case, the parameter type was a complex type which dii has
difficulty with- The fallback is that you need to register custom
serializers, which negates the portability benefit of using dii- This is why
we discourage the use of dii with complex types. In addition, as I mentioned
previously, dii was not intended for use with document(or rpc) literal xml,
at the time the JAXRPC 1.0 specification, use with soap encoding was the
intent.

As for the minimal change in registering the serializers in the client code,
dii creates dynamic serializers a bit differently the static case.
The dii runtime must traverse the data structure created from the wsdl and
use that data structure to create serializers that will correctly serialize
with the appropriate use/style in the wsdl. With use/style doc/lit or
rpc/literal, this is very difficult. The serializers created in memory will
be a bit different that in the static case.

Lastly, If you download the early draft of the JAXRPC 2.0 specification use
of literal is discouraged.

All that said, I agree that the best solution for you is to use static
stubs.
Please let me know if you have more questions, help- Kathy
