Using WSDL generated control in a PageFlow

Question

I just created a Service Control using a WSDL file and then generated a page flow
from that control. When I run the page flow, everything seems fine, but for the
results I see
ServiceControls.testControl$getXXXResult@7d4cb2
instead of the XML string. I tried adding a "toString()" to where the result variable
that is being displayed in the index.jsp that shows the value above, but it did
not help.
Thoughts?
Thanks

Kunal,
I have tried this and it works fine. I assume in your case what is happening
is, that you are tying to do a toString() on the complex object var.
I tried with a sample Web Service which accepts a complex type Customer and
was able to get the string value for both fname and lname.
My jcx file
public interface testComplexControl extends
com.bea.control.ControlExtension, com.bea.control.ServiceControl
public static class Name implements java.io.Serializable
public java.lang.String fname;
public java.lang.String lname;
* @jc:protocol form-post="false" form-get="false"
public Name testMethod (Name nm);
static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
My controller file.
public Forward testMethod( TestMethodForm aForm )
throws Exception
myfolder.testComplexControl.Name var = myControl.testMethod(
aForm.nm );
getRequest().setAttribute( "results", var );
System.out.println("fname value "+var.fname);
System.out.println("lname value "+var.lname);
System.out.println("Name value "+var.toString());
return new Forward( "success" );
public static class TestMethodForm extends FormData
private myfolder.testComplexControl.Name nm;
public void reset( org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping mapping,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request )
{this.nm = new Name();}
public void setNm( myfolder.testComplexControl.Name nm )
{this.nm = nm;}
public myfolder.testComplexControl.Name getNm()
{return nm;}
Hope this helps.
