RE: problem with web service method which returns boolean, not understood by JAX-RPC client

[c....@tcs.com]

Hi Merten,

I havent faced this problem but from what I have read... boolean return 
types are automatically converted in its form at both ends.. Infact if 
method returns null, its wrapped by Boolean wrapper..
Doubt I have whether the method returns non null and non boolean value.. 
Its just my guess as I dont have hands on with boolean return types..
Will confirm when come across.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar D Tupe
