-----------------------------------------
Hi Rajesh,
You did a great job already with the test scripts. That saved me a lot of time in getting the environment setup for testing.
I wish I can tell you there is a quick solution, but it's not very simple. The logic is bigger than I expected, so I am still in "exploring" phase. I want to find a clean solution that works for hopefully all scenarios, not just XML-RPC. If we're stuck, however, then maybe we go for XML-RPC and SOAP event handlers only, not sure! I'll keep you posted.
> Allowing XML-RPC and SOAP to pass GenericValue objects to services as IN fields

> The existing framework allows invoking various services via XMLRPC or SOAP
> as per their argument expectations. However only basic types are handled
> like String , Boolean , Int etc. If a service is expecting a GenericValue eg: 'calculateProductPrice' it is not possible to invoke it via SOAP or XMLRPC.
> The reason being SOAP or XMLRPC can support Map and that is the closest
> it can provide in lieu of any custom Object that a Service might be expecting.
> A generic solution needs to be found so that the full potential of the plethora of
> exportable services can be utilized by external systems that looks for integrating and
> banking upon OfBiz via XMLRPC or SOAP.
