Ways of instantiating Service, Call

[BS...@amig.com]

I've used two different ways to work with Axis 1.4's Service and Call
objects.  I'm tyring to understand the fundamental differents between these
two ways.  The key seems to be when the WSDL is presented, and how much
information is relied upon from the WSDL as opposed to hard-coded.

The less-code way is:

   Service service = new Service(this.wsdlURL, SERVICE_QNAME);
   Call call = (Call)service.createCall(SERVICE_PORT_QNAME,
   SERVICE_OP_QNAME);

The more-code way is:

   this.service = new Service();
   Call call = (Call)this.service.createCall();
   call.setProperty("sendMultiRefs", Boolean.FALSE);
   call.addParameter("String_1",  XMLType.XSD_STRING,  ParameterMode.IN);
   call.addParameter("int_2",     XMLType.XSD_INT,     ParameterMode.IN);
   call.addParameter("String_3",  XMLType.XSD_STRING,  ParameterMode.IN);
   ...
   call.addParameter("String_7",  XMLType.XSD_STRING,  ParameterMode.IN);
   call.setReturnType(XMLType.XSD_STRING);
   call.setTargetEndpointAddress(wsdlURL);
   call.setOperationName(SERVICE_OP_QNAME);

I'd prefer to use the former, but we encountered probelms with an older
version fo QName in the classpath that lacked the getPrefix() method.
While there are ways to fix the classloader issue that I'm working through
now, what I found interesting is that doing it the more-code way works just
fine.  Whatever Axis code is invoked in the more-code way does NOT attempt
to and fail a call to QName.getPrefix() while the less-code way does.

What is the difference in these two ways?

Brian.
