<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>I'm using JBoss 4.2.3.GA</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I have implemented and deployed a WS, the request, the response and the exception is below.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>My question is how can I define a parameter of type double or int for the web service method, and the client who will invoke my WS might send nothing, as demostrated in the request below, so if i changed the double param to string it works fine, but i need to define it as int or double, I tried Double and Integer ..but did not work, same problem.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt;
