[AXIS2-3797] "Unknown type can not serialize" Exception

• Type: Bug

• Resolution: Unresolved

• Component/s: adb
• Environment: Axis2 1.4, Tomcat 5.5.26

Description

I have a simple POJO service with the following method:

package org.tempuri.test;

import org.tempuri.test.data.arrays.ArrayOfanyType;

public class TypeTest {
public ArrayOfanyType retArrayAnyType1D(ArrayOfanyType inArrayAnyType1D)

{ return inArrayAnyType1D; }

}

The ArrayOfanyType is declared like this:

public class ArrayOfanyType {

private Object[] anyType;

public Object[] getAnyType() {
if (anyType == null)

{ anyType = new Object[0]; }

return this.anyType;
}

public void setAnyType(Object[] anyType)

{ this.anyType = anyType; }

}

I deploy this POJO on an Axis2 1.4 runtime running on Tomcat.
Then I generate a client stub using the following command:

wsdl2java -ap -o ./generated -s -u -uw -uri http://localhost:8080/axis2-1.4/services/TypeTest?wsdl

I use the stub to invoke the service passing an OMElement in the Object array:

OMFactory factory = OMAbstractFactory.getOMFactory();
OMNamespace ns = factory.createOMNamespace("http://www.serverside.com/articles/introducingAxiom", "article");
OMElement articleElement = factory.createOMElement("Article", ns);

ArrayOfanyType input = new ArrayOfanyType();
input.setAnyType(new OMElement[]

{articleElement}

);
stub.retArrayAnyType1D(input);

While serializing the ArrayOfanyType ADBBean I get an "Unknown type can not serialize" exception:

Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: Unknow type can not serialize
at org.apache.axis2.databinding.utils.ConverterUtil.serializeAnyType(ConverterUtil.java:1449)

at org.tempuri.test.RetArrayAnyType1D$1.serialize(RetArrayAnyType1D.java:111)
...

I did not have this problem on Axis2 1.3 so I guess something have been changed in ConverterUtil.
