Description

When a method returns a java.util.Date (or an object containing a java.util.Date), only the date portion is returned in Axis2 1.5:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
<soapenv:Body>
<ns:getCurrentTimeResponse xmlns:ns="http://ws.apache.org/axis2">
<ns:return>2009-06-10</ns:return>
</ns:getCurrentTimeResponse>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

In Axis2 1.4.1, the full date and time was returned:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
<soapenv:Body>
<ns:getCurrentTimeResponse xmlns:ns="http://ws.apache.org/axis2">
<ns:return>2009-06-10T16:22:22.622Z</ns:return>
</ns:getCurrentTimeResponse>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

This change breaks any application that requires the time portion to function correctly.
