Hi.

I'm a new user of JBoss.

I'm trying to create a WebService with JBoss 4.2.0 and Eclipse 3.1 (using Java 1.5 and Ejb 2.1: I must use these versions).

No problem with business methods returning a String, but I can't create business methods returning an array of Strings, a JavaBean or (it's my really goal) an array of JavaBeans.

I realize that in some way I have to map Java types in xml types and viceversa. But, HOW?

I have to change wsdl file, jaxrpc-mapping.xml, webservices.xml or I have to create some new file?
Googling, I found too many infos: sorry, maybe this is a faq but it's driving me crazy :( .


I can deploy a Service that returns an array of Strings but the client throws the follow exception:

{http://xml.apache.org/axis/}stackTrace:org.xml.sax.SAXException:
Deserializing parameter 'result': could not find deserializer for type

And if I try to deploy a webservice that returns a JavaBean, Jboss prints the follow error:

Cannot load java type: MyJavaBean.in.its.package

Can someone help me? :(
