Description

I am getting a bad SOAP response when complexTypes are involved:

WSDL (extract)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<import namespace="urn:http://arrays/com/ibm/dw/reallybigpet/ejb" />
<complexType name="Category">
<sequence>
<element name="id" type="xsd:string" nillable="true" />
<element name="name" type="xsd:string" nillable="true" />
</sequence>
</complexType>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

mapping.xml (extract)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<java-xml-type-mapping>
<java-type>com.ibm.dw.reallybigpet.ejb.Category</java-type>
<root-type-qname>tns:Category</root-type-qname>
<qname-scope>complexType</qname-scope>
<variable-mapping>
<java-variable-name>id</java-variable-name>
<xml-element-name>id</xml-element-name>
</variable-mapping>
<variable-mapping>
<java-variable-name>name</java-variable-name>

Generated Client Stubs (Axis WSDL2Java & jDeveloper Web Services Proxy Generator) crash because they cannot remap the array:

The problem is here (in the SOAP response):
