REPOST - Problem with multi-dimensional array

[Martin Jericho <ma...@jabmail.com>]

Could someone at least tell me whether multi-dimensional arrays are meant to work in 1.0?  The only reason I am assuming they should is because of the claim on the website that "Axis ... has passed Sun's JAX-RPC and SAAJ compliance tests", and the JAX-RPC specification covers multi-dimensional arrays.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me even just a simple yes or no answer.

  Subject: Problem with multi-dimensional array


  I just updated to Axis 1.0, but I'm having trouble with a multi-dimensional array.  The client is sending a 2 dimensional array to the server, and everything looks fine in the request, but the server throws an exception when trying to parse it.  I thought axis 1.0 is meant to support multi-dimensional arrays now?

  Can anyone tell me what's going wrong?

  Thanks
  Martin


  The relevant part of the request looks like this:

        <iteratedMergeFieldData xsi:type="ns1:IteratedMergeFieldData">
         <iterationName xsi:type="xsd:string">lineitems</iterationName>
         <fieldValuesArray xsi:type="soapenc:Array" soapenc:arrayType="xsd:string[5]" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
          <item>lineitemvalue0</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue1</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue2</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue3</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue4</item>
         </fieldValuesArray>
         <fieldValuesArray xsi:type="soapenc:Array" soapenc:arrayType="xsd:string[5]" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
          <item>lineitemvalue0</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue1</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue2</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue3</item>
          <item>lineitemvalue4</item>
         </fieldValuesArray>
        </iteratedMergeFieldData>


  The relevant part of the WSDL looks like this:

     <complexType name="IteratedMergeFieldData">
      <sequence>
       <element name="iterationName" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
       <element maxOccurs="unbounded" name="fieldValuesArray" nillable="true" type="impl:ArrayOf_xsd_string"/>
      </sequence>
     </complexType>
     <complexType name="ArrayOf_xsd_string">
      <complexContent>
       <restriction base="soapenc:Array">
        <attribute ref="soapenc:arrayType" wsdl:arrayType="xsd:string[]"/>
       </restriction>
      </complexContent>
     </complexType>


  The axis log looks like this:
