axis:complex types

[Clyde]

Trying to get a client to work that accesses a web service that sends
back complex data type. I have no experience with using complex types
and trying to get a head start for a workshop at my users group. We
want to write the code and not use the WSDL2Java utility.

I have created a javabean class (Weather) that holds the fields sent
back from the service, but when I connect, I eventually get a
SAXException. Where can I find more help about using complex types in
rpc & document style calls?

The WSDL is at http://ws2.serviceobjects.com/fw/FastWeather.asmx?WSDL

- Exception:
org.xml.sax.SAXException: Invalid element in jsl.clients.Weather -
LastUpdated

The serializers are setup in the client as:

// Set up serialization encoding for the object
QName qname = new QName(namespaceUri, "Weather");

BeanSerializerFactory bsf = new BeanSerializerFactory(Weather.class,
qname);
BeanDeserializerFactory bdf =
new BeanDeserializerFactory(Weather.class, qname);

call.registerTypeMapping(Weather.class, qname, bsf, bdf);
call.addParameter("ns1:PostalCode",
org.apache.axis.Constants.XSD_STRING,
javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode.IN);

call.addParameter("ns1:LicenseKey",
org.apache.axis.Constants.XSD_STRING,
javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode.IN);

call.addParameter("GetWeatherByZipResponse", qname,
javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode.OUT);

call.setReturnType(qname);

The service's response is:
