-----------------------------------------------------

Well people can argue this as an bug and feature as well. 
I recently I added an option to off the strict valications. This is basically do not throw an exception when not receiving an expected element. So you are talking about the otherside. 
I'll put this too from the next release. but there won't be enough time for Axis2 1.3.

> I have an client app that was created and had been working, it makes a call to one webservice.
> The webservice was upgraded, it added some new methods and it also added a new property (Type) to one of the return types I was using.
> Now my app will no longer work, i get a runtime error,  java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected subelement Type, when the results are returned to my service.
> If i rebuilt the client stub code using wsdl2java with the new wsdl my app will work again.
> As I understand it, adding fields to a object should not break any existing code. Any Xml elements returned that are not known elements should be ignored and not cause exceptions in the client code.
> I have tested my assumption with Visual Studio 2005, if i genereate web service client code using the old wsdl I can still call the new service without an exception being thrown because of the new Xml element being returned.
> Is there some option that I don't know of that will allow for new elements to be returned without exceptions being throw?
