Title
Body
I have this simple JAX-WS WebService: @WebService public class AnimalFeedingService { @WebMethod public void feed(@WebParam(name = "animal") Animal animal) { // Whatever } } @XmlSeeAlso({ Dog.class, Cat.class }) public abstract class Animal { private double weight; private String name; // Also getters and setters } public class Dog extends Animal {} public class Cat extends Animal {} I create a client and call feed with an instance of Dog . Animal myDog = new Dog(); myDog .setName("Rambo"); myDog .setWeight(15); feedingServicePort.feed(myDog); The animal in the body of the SOAP call looks like this: <animal> <name>Rambo</name> <weight>15</weight> </animal> and I get an UnmarshallException because Animal is abstract. Is there a way to have Rambo unmarshalled as an instance of class Dog ? What are my alternatives?
