Avoiding 'Invalid element in ...'

We have a web service client created with Axis WSDL2Java calling a 
web service created by another company in .NET. We need to be able to 
extend the web service over time without having to synchronize the 
updates of our respective system.

If a property is added to a type/bean/DTO on the server part, the 
client will issue the well known "Invalid element in" until we have 
regerated the client stubs. I would like Axis to just ignore unknown 
elements. What is the proper way to do this?
Is there an argument to WSDL2Java to control this behaviour?


Thanks in advance,
