[jboss-user] [JBoss Web Services] - Is polymorphic JAX-WS operation parameter possible to implement?

To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/817907#817907 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I'm developing a web service and I need it to accept a polymorphic parameter. For example, imagine an operation named processRequests(List<Request> requests) which may accept a "Request" and a "CustomRequest" type (extending from Request) and possibly some others. It is my understanding that it should be possible to achieve however no matter how I do it I allways get the paramter unmarshaled as the base class. I'm testing it with SOAP UI in the following way: <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/ http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ser=" http://test.com/ http://test.com/">    <soapenv:Header/>    <soapenv:Body>       <ser:processRequests>          <!--Zero or more repetitions of customRequest -->          <requests xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="customRequest">              <prop1/>              <prop2/>          </requests>       </ser:processRequests>    </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> The pojos are as the following: @XmlRootElement @XmlSeeAlso({CustomRequest.class}) publc class Request {} publc class CustomRequest extends Request{} ¿Am I tryin to do something impossible? Your help is highly appreciated! -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/817907#817907] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
