Kathy,
Thanks for the response. Since this seems like a bug/spec issue, I'm keeping
the thread here. If you think it should be on "user" - go ahead and reply on
that list.
I've read the JAX-WS PFD and I don't see where this issues is
discussed. Could
you provide a page or section reference?
In any event, I don't think it makes sense to not allow the JAXB
binding in this
case. I think its common for RESTful web services to have a null XML request
payload. Often, the invocation parameters are passed as query strings. The
response is XML. This is how the Amazon REST interface works - any many
others.
So, you don't want the JAX-WS implementation to force you to work with Source
whenever you are going an HTTP GET. You would want to have a JAXB binding on
the response. Otherwise, you are dealing with a StreamSource response
and then
you have to unmarshal it into your JAXB object - not very elegant.
