C++ client cannot access a Java String type method return value.

["Franklin, Allen" <Al...@concerto.com>]

I am unable to retrieve a String data type as a return value of a SOAP method.
I always get a value of zero for the pointer to the character string.
The server-side is Java, using axis version 1.2beta3 (it's java from JBuilder2005).
My client is C++ axis version 1.3.

Using the java int data type as a return type for my SOAP method works ok.
Any insight into what might be causing the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Below is the xml result or calling my method.
The name of my SOAP method is GetEventInfo().
You can see the data in the xml, it's, "hey you".

Below is the wsdl for my server. Sorry that it is so long, but I thought it might be of use.
