Spring ArrayList doesn't work
-----------------------------

                 Key: AXIS2-3840
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3840
             Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.4
         Environment: XP SP2/JDK1.6.0_06/Apache 2.2/Tomcat 5.5/Axis 2 1.4 using war install.
            Reporter: Stephen Kilburn


ArrayLists apparently are not correctly recreated by Axis2 when using Spring.

To replicate behaviour:

Using the WeatherSpringService example code, I modify the Weather class to contain ArrayList<String> comments.  I add getter and setter methods.  I set a comment.

Generated WSDL shows:

<xs:complexType name="Weather">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="comments" nillable="true" type="xs:anyType"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="forecast" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="howMuchRain" type="xs:float"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="rain" type="xs:boolean"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="temperature" type="xs:float"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

When I execute the getWeather method the SOAP passed back shows:

<ns:return type="sample.spring.bean.Weather">
<ax21:comments>it's nice now!</ax21:comments>
<ax21:forecast>le matin</ax21:forecast>
<ax21:howMuchRain>0.1</ax21:howMuchRain>
<ax21:rain>true</ax21:rain>
<ax21:temperature>37.2</ax21:temperature>
</ns:return>

(i.e. the set value is being transported) 

However, the ArrayList generates errors when I attempt to use it.  Set client up as follows:

ArrayList<String> comments = result.getComments();
// (Check that the variable isn't null - it isn't and has one element.)
System.out.println("comments exists and is of type " + comments.getClass());
Object o;
o = comments.get(i);
System.out.println("comment " + i + " class is " + o.getClass());

This returned:

comments exists and is of type class java.util.ArrayList
comment 0 class is class org.apache.axiom.om.impl.llom.OMElementImpl  [it should be String]
