Java has class types for primitives that work with the Parameter class. Each
object wrapper has a static member called TYPE that gives the class of the
associated primitive. For example, the class for int is given by
Integer.TYPE.

Subject: Passing primitives into SOAP calls
Hello,
I'm trying to understand how to expose a SOAP service with a method that
takes a primitive data types (such as int) rather than objects (like
Integer). Most of the code examples I've found set up the call's method
arguments like this:
Call call = new Call();
Vector params = new Vector();
params.addElement(new Parameter("caller", String.class, "whatever",
null));
call.setParams(params);
The problem is that the Parameter constructor only takes object-based
parameters (a String in this case), but won't take primitives. I
reviewed the source code for Parameter and I don't see any way to give
it a non-object parameter.
So I began to wonder if it wasn't possible. Then I ran into this
document, "Creating Type Mappings":
http://xml.apache.org/soap/docs/guide/serializer.html
It seems to imply that at least from a XML serialization perspective,
Apache SOAP knows about primitive types. So how do you use one as a call
parameter?
Thanks,
Jason
