toby cabot commented on AXIS-1772:
----------------------------------

org.apache.axis.description.OperationDesc isn't serializable because it contains a field of type java.lang.reflect.Method.  I think that there are some collection fields that also contain non-serializable fields, too.

org.apache.axis.description.JavaServiceDesc isn't Serializable, and it contains a field of type java.lang.reflect.Method.

> a part of the request/response xml schema of our web service uses an <xsd:any> element to transport arbitrary xml content.
> using wsdl2java to generate the java beans, the <xsd:any> content is represented using an array of MessageElement objects, available via the get_any() method.
> when trying to pass around the generated java beans using native java serialization (e.g., in a remote ejb call) a NotSerializableException occurs, if the java bean contains a MessageElement as described above.
> although the MessageElement implements the java.io.Serializable interface, i suspect it is in fact not serializable because (at least in my case) it somehow references an OperationDesc object which is not serializable.
