JPublisher: oracle...literal.AttributeMap not translated into object type

Question

Hi,
I have a problem to get a valid PL/SQL wrapper for the web-service at http://adostest.armstrongconsulting.com/DSX/DocumentServices.asmx?wsdl
I use jpub to generate the web service callout (jar file and pl/sql wrapper) and the generation of that file completes without an error, but if I try to load the pl/sql package into the database it fails, because one of the generated object types has an invalid definition.
-- Create SQL type for oracle.j2ee.ws.common.encoding.literal.AttributeMap
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE OBJ_AttributeMap AS OBJECT (); The object type for the java class oracle.j2ee.ws.common.encoding.literal.AttributeMap doesn't contain any attributes.
Software used:
-) Latest JPublisher 10g Release 10.2 (http://download.oracle.com/otn/utilities_drivers/jdbc/10201/jpub_102.zip)
-) 10.1.3.1 Callout Utility for 10g and 11g RDBMS (http://download.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/jsp/dbws-callout-utility-10131.zip)
-) Oracle DB 10.2.0.3
Command used to generate files:
jpub -proxywsdl="http://adostest.armstrongconsulting.com/DSX/DocumentServices.asmx?wsdl" -proxyopts=noload -package=ados -plsqlpackage=ADOS_WebServiceBTW, I noticed that the dbwsa.jar contains this class, but the "runtime" classes contained in dbwsclientws.jar which are loaded into the database do not contain this class. If I look into the previous version of the Callout Utility (10.1.3.0) at http://download.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/jsp/dbws-callout-utility-10R2.zip it is contained in the dbwsclient.jar which is loaded into the database.
What is wrong or what can I do to get a valid object type mapping?
Thanks
Patrick

Yes. We are calling a .NET web service as well.
I got around the problem by the following steps:
1. Forcing JPub to use the jar files that come with JDeveloper 10.1.3.3, rather than dbwsa.jar and dbwsclientws.jar.
2. Upload the JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 web service libraries into the database
3. Manually edit the JPub wrapper code (static methods) generated by JPub. I have to comment out all references to AttributeMap. Not sure why JPub wants to use it...
