cxf and abstract object transformation
I'm currently developing an app (using CXF 2.06 for the ws interaction)
and have come across an issue when transforming data from an external
web service back into Java. It looks like CXF is trying to create the
abstract version of the object, rather than the concrete implementation
(see stack trace at the end of this message). Is there any way I can
help CXF identify this data with the correct implementation of the
object through code?
Thanks,
Daniel

Ian,
thanks for the assistance. As I am using the generated @WebServiceClient
classes to call the web services (rather than using a client), is there
a simple way to add this functionality in without changing the way I
access the external services? Also, what are the advantages of using a
client as opposed to calling the generated @WebServiceClient class
directly?
Thanks again,
Daniel

There was a post about this a couple of weeks back - in order to pass
objects of types that are not directly used as parameter or return
types, you need to tell the JAXB context about the subclasses
explicitly.

With CXF 2.1 you can just use @XmlSeeAlso, but it's a bit more
complicated with 2.0.x.
