Problem with complex types when consuming Axis 1.4 web service withC# client

[Philip Reimer]

Hello.

We have here a Java web service that has been created using Apache Axis
1.4, using the document/literal wrapped style, and returns complex types
in its methods.

When consuming the web service with a C# client, all the fields in the
returned objects are null. The SOAP message, however, contains all the
expected data.

I've already searched on the net but only found people describing the
same problem but no solutions for this.

So, if anyone could point me to some documentation about that or have
some solution, I'd appreciate if he'd let me know.

Regards,
Philip

This often happens when there is a confusion of namespaces between the
client and the server. Make sure that your .NET code is expecting the exact
same namespaces as the Axis code is sending.

When I say "exact", I mean byte-for-byte exact. A recent poster had a
problem because there was a trailing space in the namespace declaration he
was using.

Hi John.

Thanks a lot. That seems to have been the problem here.
