hi,

it looks OK.

you actually should call this from your class unless you want Mex
handler to be part of XSOAP.

how do you send your object and more importantly what exactly is Mex class?

if you send me Mex.java and MexHandler.java and your test class
i will try to reproduce the problem.

i have downloaded http://www.extreme.indiana.edu/xgws/xsoap/rmi/download/
xsoap_1_2_19_all.tgz and successfully recompiled on solaris and windows 2000
and rebuilt without any problems (on windows i have used WinZip to unpack .tgz)

i am still curious what is causing this problem for you.

thanks,
