Question regarding exposing an existing java class as webservice.

Hello Axis2 Experts,



I am looking into the possibility of using Axis2 to expose existing java
classes which are part of a reporting framework as web services for
enterprise-wide usage. I would ideally like to use the classes without
any modification.



The problem that I seem to come across before I seriously consider the
using Axis2 is that the existing java classes have collections like
Array Lists and Hash Maps as the parameters for the methods.



The usage of collections it seems is not encouraged by the Axis2 design,
can you please suggest any work around or provide me leads, as to how to
overcome this limitation , in case of both RPC/enc and doc/lit model of
webservices.



Thanks.
