Little Help Sending Objects

[Gordon Easton <go...@yahoo.com>]

Hi All,

I've been working on a serializer/deserializer that
will let me return arbitrary Java Objects using SOAP.
I having it working. It's pretty cool to get an object
returned from across the net.  
The only problem is that the client needs to have
access to the specific Class definition being returned
so that the returned Object can be cast properly.  If
there was a way for the client to get the Class
definition from the web service that will be returning
the Object the client would not need the class
definition.  Does anyone know how I could do this?
I vaguely remember this being done using CORBA, but
that was a while ago.

Thanks for any thoughts.
