> Whilst JAX-RPC does not define a standard mapping from a Java class to xsd:date, Apache Axis has a non standard extension which maps service interfaces defined using java.sql.Date to xsd:date. Unfortunately this does not work out-of-the-box. When a parameter of type xsd:date is sent from a client stub to an AXIS server, it is erroneously deserialized as a java.util.Date. This is despite the fact that both the WSDD, and XML request, specify that the parameter is of type XSD:Date, rather than XSD:DateTime. 
> The resultant effect of this incorrect deserialization, is that AXIS will erroneously try to find a method to invoke with a java.util.Date in it's signature, rather than a java.sql.Date (which the method signature actually specifies), and hence will throw a 'no such method error'.
> The problem is resolved by implementing a custom deserializer which, when registered against the type java.sql.Date, merely converts the incorrectly deserialized java.util.Date to a java.sql.Date, allowing AXIS to invoke the correct method. 
> The code for the overriden makeValue function of the custom deserializer is as follows:
> public Object makeValue(String source) {
>         
>    Object obj = super.makeValue(source);
>         
>    if (javaType == java.sql.Date.class) {
>       	if (obj instanceof java.sql.Date) {
>   		return obj;
>        	} else if (obj instanceof java.util.Date) {
>        		return new                         java.sql.Date(((java.util.Date)obj).getTime());
>        	}
>    }
>         
>         if (javaType == java.util.Date.class) {
>         	if (obj instanceof java.util.Date) {
>         		return obj;
>         	}
>     	}
>     
>         throw new RuntimeException(
>            	"cannot convert " + obj.getClass().getName() + " to " + javaType.getName()
> 		);
>     }
