Need SOAP to return string, not map

[MikeBranch]

Greetings – I’m building SOAP services in OFBiz for a canned client, i.e.,
one that I can’t modify. It requires a simple string as a return value, as
in:



<soap:Envelope… >

   <soap:Body>

      <getMessage… >

         <getMessageResult>Hello SOAP!</getMessageResult>

      </getMessage>

   </soap:Body>

</soap:Envelope>



In one case I also need to return an array of strings.



OFBiz, out of the box, can only return a Map. In digging through the
Advanced Framework training transcription (p. 200) I see that extra work is
required to accomplish something like this. Does anybody have an example of
such a beast?



Specifically I’m trying to talk to the QuickBooks Web Connector. Note that
this is different from the OFBiz QB samples that are frequently referenced,
as those don’t appear to use the QB Web Connector.



Thanks in advance for any help.

We are in the process of making this possible.

I expect a first version in the next couple of weeks.
