TypeDesc.getFieldNameForAttribute partial match should account for multiRef attributes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: AXIS-2053
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2053
     Project: Apache Axis
        Type: Bug
  Components: Serialization/Deserialization  
    Versions: 1.2RC2    
 Environment: n/a
    Reporter: Mark Ford


The BeanDeserializer uses TypeDesc.getFieldNameForAttribute(QName) to deserialize attributes for the bean. The code in TypeDesc looks for an exact match on the attribute QName but failing that it falls back to find a partial match based on the local name only. Given the following element, it's possible for the deserializer to match the "id" attribute incorrectly:

<multiRef id="id0" ns1:id="SomeValue">TextValue</multiRef>

Given the above, the BeanDeserializer will feed the first id attribute into TypeDesc.getFieldNameForAttribute(QName) as new QName("", "id") and it will match against the field name for the namespace qualified id value. 

The workaround is to not have an attribute named "id", regardless of whether it is namespace qualified. The fix would be to add "id" as an exception to the partial match since it's a well known attribute from the SOAP Encoding rules OR to make this partial match routine optional.
