How to generate an infrastructural web service passing xmldocument forth and back

Question

Hi all,

I got a problem with implementing a very simple web service with the following signature:

public Response RR_Service(Request request) Throws Fault

where Request, Response and Fault should accept any custom XML (or a anyType, or a SOAPElement, or … ).

My environment is:

• Windows 7
• Eclipse Helios,
• Tomcat 5.5
• Jre 6.0
• Axis 2 (1.4)

The web service should be the template for every ws implementation In the past, I did the same using strings to pass XML.

I compiled and deployed everything, started the Eclipse Web Service explorer and try to run the ws with the results below.

I tried with a lot of different combination without succeeding.

Have you got any suggestion or can you see the bug in the logic approach?

You can find a zip with the 4 source files at ftp://www.diviana.net/ws.zip .

Thank you
