Hi Bas,
If your class follows the Javabean conventions (public getter and
setter), Axis will pick up that field and include it in the WSDL.
Otherwise the field needs to be public.
Check out the Java->XML mapping section in the JAX-RPC 1.1 spec for details.
Regards,
Dies

Hi all,
I'm trying to send an existing java class (not my app, don't have the
source, beyond a decompiled version to see what's in it) over the wire
using Axis on both ends, with very little success.
What I'm wondering about: how does java2wsdl work in terms of
establishing what attributes a given class has? It appears to derive
this from the methods of the class, not by looking at the (private)
attributes, would that be how it works?
My problem is that the class has an array (boolean[]) for which there
is no getter/setter, hence it does not show up in the wsdl. It doesn't
get transferred over the wire and thus the instance on the server end
doesn't have this array set properly, causing some methods to toss a
null pointer exception :(
I'll have to solve it by creating a similar class, construct one in the
client and send that over the wire instead. Not nice, but workable.
Just can't seem to figure out how a) the wsdl gets created and b)
serialization takes place.
Cheers,
Bas.
