Problem using simple java webservice from .NET

[Dave Brown]

Hi all,

I'm having a real problem trying to write a webservice that I can call from .NET. I use Netbeans 4.1 and until recently used Tomcat as my App Server, but since wanting to try and do some webservices decided to give Sun's App Server a go. So far so good, everything including jdbc seems to work ok after a bit of messing But anyway..

I created a webservice in netbeans called UpdateService, as eventually it will help me with live updates of a package i'm writing.

For testing I decided the most simple of functions a Hello function.

public String Hello(java.lang.String LastUpdate) {      
        return "World";
    }  

I just want to call the Hello function and have it return "World".

However I dont think its creating the WSDL correctly as the String parameter above does not show as a String parameter though .Net, rather it thinks it is of type 'Hello' not of type 'String'.

I'll paste the generated WSDL below, I would really appreciate any assistance or any thoughts of what stage is going wrong. BTW I'm using JWSDP v1.6 with Sun App Server 8.1
So any thoughts at all anyone ?

Thanks in advance..
