Error description

If @XmlSeeAlso is present on the webservice interface and the
@XmlSeeAlso is not present on the webservice endpoint and the
endpoint does not implement the interface, you can observe this
exception in WebSphere Application Server logs:
.
javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException:
org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementNSImpl incompatible with some_class
org.apache.axis2.jaxws.marshaller.impl.alt.MethodMarshallerUtils
.createSystemException(MethodMarshallerUtils.java:1249)
org.apache.axis2.jaxws.marshaller.impl.alt.MethodMarshallerUtils
.demarshalFaultResponse(MethodMarshallerUtils.java:975)
....
.
This problem was discovered in WebSphere Application Server
V7.0.0.1 release.

Local fix

Configure manually @XmlSeeAlso annotation on the webservice
endpoint or configure the endpoint so that implements the web
service interface.

****************************************************************
A JAX-WS Service Endpoint Interface (SEI) may contain
@XmlSeeAlso annotations.  These annotations inform the runtime
about the existence of specific classes that are not directly
referenced by the web service.  The JAX-WS runtime uses the
annotations to determine how to marshal or unmarshal data
objects.

Due to a problem in the JAX-WS runtime, these annotations are
not being processed correctly.  This may cause the JAX-WS
runtime to unmarshal the data objects as Data Object
Model (DOM) Elements instead of JAXB objects.  When the web
service application attempts to process the data object an
error may occur indicating that the DOM Element is
incompatible with a user class.  Example:

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException:
org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementNSImpl incompatible with some_class
org.apache.axis2.jaxws.marshaller.impl.alt.MethodMarshallerUtils
.createSystemException(MethodMarshallerUtils.java:1249)
org.apache.axis2.jaxws.marshaller.impl.alt.MethodMarshallerUtils
.demarshalFaultResponse(MethodMarshallerUtils.java:975)

Problem conclusion

The JAX-WS runtime failed to examine the @XmlSeeAlso
annotations on the JAX-WS SEI.  The runtime is changed to find
and process these annotations.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpack 7.0.0.5.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
