how do I deserialize a Vector?

[Ed Keen <ed...@interactiveportal.com>]

Since the VectorSerializer does not support deserialization, how do I
deserialize something returned to me in this format?  Here is the fragment
from my DeploymentDescriptor.xml:

    <isd:map encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
             xmlns:x="urn:xml-test-soap" qname="x:vector"
             javaType="java.util.Vector"
 
java2XMLClassName="org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc.VectorSerializer"/>


Note that I did not include the "xml2JavaClassName" attribute, because
VectorSerializer does not support deserialization.  In my client, when I
call 

	Response resp = call.invoke(url, "");

It produces the following SOAPException:

	FaultCode:  SOAP-ENV:Client
	Message:  No Deserializer found to deserialize a
'urn:xml-test-soap:vector' using encoding style
'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'.

At this point, my Response object is null, so I cannot even manually parse
the result that was sent back to the client.

Thanks,
Ed

Ed:

If you're working with 2.1, Vectors will be serialized/deserialized for you
automatically, without the need for any type mappings in your
DeploymentDescriptor.  Try pulling the isd:map out and see if that works.

P.S.  All and sundry : I was too busy this weekend to get the
Vector/SOAPArray changes done, but I am working on it.
