Does Axis2 support circular referencing of objects.

Hi,

 

I was just curious about knowing whether axis2 supports circular referencing
of objects.

 

For eg.

 

There are two classes like

 

Class Parent

{

                String motherName;

                Child[] children;

 

}

 

Class Child

{

                String name;

                Parent parent;

}

 

Will I be able to sent Parent object as an argument to a webservice and
return that object back.

 

Regards

Happy

It should work. However, the best way is to try it out. You can write
a POJO Web service which takes these classes as arguments or returns
them. If you use WSO2 WSAS (http://wso2.org/projects/wsas/java), you
can simply upload the jar file containing this implementation, and use
its "Try It" tool to invoke the Web service and see whether you get
the desired result back.
