I'm assessing a server from the client side. I'm not sure what the server is written with. I've tried this with 1.1, 1.2, and 1.2.1.
The generated proxies have this statement before the service request.
_call.setProperty(org.apache.axis.client.Call.SEND_TYPE_ATTR, Boolean.FALSE);
I can also confirm that
MessageContext property name=sendXsiTypes value=false
Nevertheless, with a particular string array, the client insists on generating
xsi:type="xsd:string" on the element
Removing the xsi:type and sending the SOAP XML via a raw post to the server works, so it is definite that this is problem.
As far as I tell from some limited debugging, the code gets deep into its serialization and compares the xmlType with an actualType (not sure where or how this is created or what purpose it serves). If these are different, it seems to generate the xsi:type no matter what the property setting is.
Any idea how to work around this?
