INOUT parameters in WSDL-Driven call

           Summary: INOUT parameters in WSDL-Driven call
           Product: Axis
           Version: current (nightly)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: WSDL processing
        AssignedTo: axis-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: acbellini@libero.it


I am accessing a MS Soap server using a direct AXIS Call. The operation which I 
invoke has 4 IN parameters, 1 INOUT parameter and a result
If I manually set all 5 params and result, everything works fine, but if I 
create the call based on WSDL information, the 5th parameter will be set as IN 
instead of INOUT.
I found that Call.setOperation(QName, String) will take all input parts and set 
them as IN parameters, while while output parts are discarded if they already 
appear in IN parameters, and the first non-IN parameter is taken as result.

I have patched the code so that parts found both in input and output are set as 
INOUT parameters.

I don't have access to any SOAP server that will use only OUT parameters, so I 
just left subsequent non-IN parts to be discarded.
hope this helps
