Hi, while looking at the reason why some of our ws tests are currently failing against AS 5, we were wondering whether a VirtualFile reference could be actually serialized or not, that is this is a supported feature or not. The current failing tests, btw are here http://jbws.dyndns.org:8180/hudson/job/Native-Core-AS-5.0.1/18/testReport...; the webservice app client is using a service-ref to look up the remote webservice metadata that were previously bound on jndi. Those metadata include virtual files that are not available on client side when deserialization occurs.
