Greetings All,
After continued searching, I came across an IBM link that discussed JAX-WS
in some detail. The answer to my question ly in the class ObjectFactory,
which is created automatically by JAX-WS to map data. In this case there
are a number of creation functions/methods that when called return the class
properly qualified (in my case a JAXBElement). Once I found this class the
rest was a sinch.
Hope this helps.
