inheritance and soap

[flo]

I just ran into a problem with my soap connection. Server is java6 and
client is php5.

Everything works fine, but as soon as i work with a hierarchical
structure of objects i get the problem that subclasses are lost.
Following example shows a simple setup:

Classes:
class a
class b extends a
class c extends a
class d extends a

Via soap i send an array of a. On the client side b, c and d are lost
now. Is there a way to keep subclasses?

Thanks,
flo

Hi Flo

i'm not an expert here on the list - but why should the client know about b,c and d if you only send an array of a ?

or did I mist something ... ?

Hi Flo,

Are you using SCA on the client side? Could you post a small sample
which demonstrates the problem and I'll take a look?
