Re: Re: Is JAX-RPC really not capable of processing complex data types? Whatabout the AXIS implementation?

[Roland Beuker <ro...@xs4all.nl>]

Thanks,

Is it not true that JAX-RPC cannot handle complex types (like the story 
below) or has Axis an extension for this functionality (as Axis is a 
JAX-RPC implementation)?
