exception when ws method has Hashtable as input parameter

[Ma...@nokia.com]

Hi,
	i was trying to use wsif for a java class that accepts as input
an Hashtable.

> 1) Use org.apache.wsif.tools.Java2WSDL to create a WSDL 
> document from a
> Java class which will include only a SOAP binding.
> 2) Run org.apache.wsif.tools.WSDL2WSDL to add a Java binding 
> to the WSDL
> document created in step 1.
> 3) Run org.apache.wsif.tools.WSDL2Java against the document 
> created in step
> 2 to create a WSIF testcase to invoke the service
> 

at step 3, the following class has  been generated (for the Hashtable)
org.apache.xml.xml_soap.Map_item.java

when i ran  my testcase, i got following exception:

C:\wsif>java -cp %CLASSPATH%;test.jar DefaultNamespace.JoltToolServiceTestCase
