Problem with deserialization of null objects

[hu...@jpmorgan.com]

I have a simple service which takes one argument.  When I pass null into
the method it is deserialized as an EMPTY object in the SOAP service.  It
doesn't matter whether the object is a String or Vector or whatever.  Using
the TcpTunnelGui I can see that the attribute xsi:null="true" is correctly
set during serialization.

I am using WebSphere Studio Application Developer 4.0 (but not using the
SOAP jar packaged with the IDE; instead I'm using Apache SOAP 2.2).  I
deployed the SOAP service to Tomcat and ran into the same problem.

Any ideas?

Shawn.
