Web service data types

java.lang.byte[]

xsd:base64Binary

java.lang.Boolean

xsd:boolean

java.util.Date

The DATE type, which is defined in a service WSDL as follows:

<complexType name="DATE">

<sequence>

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="date" type="xsd:dateTime" />

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="calendar" type="xsd:dateTime" />

</sequence>

</complexType>

If a LiveCycle service operation takes a java.util.Date value as input, the SOAP client application must pass the date in the DATE.date field. Setting the DATE.calendar field in this case causes a runtime exception. If the service returns a java.util.Date, the date is retuned in the DATE.date field.

java.util.Calendar

The DATE type, which is defined in a service WSDL as follows:

<complexType name="DATE">

<sequence>

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="date" type="xsd:dateTime" />

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="calendar" type="xsd:dateTime" />

</sequence>

</complexType>

If a LiveCycle service operation takes a java.util.Calendar value as input, the SOAP client application must pass the date in the DATE.caledendar field. Setting the DATE.date field in this case causes a run-time exception. If the service returns a java.util.Calendar, then the date is returned in the DATE.calendar field.

java.util.Map

The apachesoap:Map, which is defined in a service WSDL as follows:

<schema elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<complexType name="mapItem">

<sequence>

<element name="key" nillable="true" type="xsd:anyType"/>

<element name="value" nillable="true" type="xsd:anyType"/>

</sequence>

</complexType>

<complexType name="Map">

<sequence>

<element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="item" type="apachesoap:mapItem"/>

</sequence>

</complexType>

</schema>

The Map is represented as a sequence of key/value pairs.

org.w3c.dom.Document

The XML type, which is defined in a service WSDL as follows:

<complexType name="XML">

<sequence>

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="document" type="xsd:string" />

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="element" type="xsd:string" />

</sequence>

</complexType>

If a LiveCycle service operation accepts an org.w3c.dom.Document value, pass the XML data in the XML.document field.

Setting the XML.element field causes a runtime exception. If the service returns an org.w3c.dom.Document, then the XML data is returned in the XML.document field.

org.w3c.dom.Element

The XML type, which is defined in a service WSDL as follows:

<complexType name="XML">

<sequence>

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="document" type="xsd:string" />

<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="element" type="xsd:string" />

</sequence>

</complexType>

If a LiveCycle service operation takes an org.w3c.dom.Element as input, pass the XML data in the XML.element field.

Setting the XML.document field causes a runtime exception. If the service returns an org.w3c.dom.Element, then the XML data is retuned in the XML.element field.
