message style method signatures unclear

           Summary: message style method signatures unclear
           Product: Axis
           Version: 1.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: axis-dev@ws.apache.org
        ReportedBy: wbredenkamp@pnp.co.za


I think I may have found a bug in org.apache.axis.description.ServiceDesc.
In
        private int checkMessageMethod(Method method)
you do the following:
        if ((params[0] == SOAPEnvelope.class) &&
            (params[1] == SOAPEnvelope.class) &&
            (method.getReturnType() == void.class)) {
            return OperationDesc.MSG_METHOD_SOAPENVELOPE;
        }

This checks the method signature against org.apache.axis.message.SOAPEnvelope.
Should it not be checked against javax.xml.soap.SOAPEnvelope instead (as a 
matter of JAXM compliancy)?

If not, please clarify the user guide documentation which describes the 
signatures that are acceptable for message style service methods.
