Deserializing the output of wcf service method

Vishal Gilbile

Hello Friends,

I'm working on a project which is being developed on java technology using jsf, servlets and jsp but my service is a wcf service. I'm using netbeans 7.1 as my editor. One problem i'm facing is that I have one method in my service which returns a generic List but when the data transfers over the wire I always get it as an array of object. How to get the output in the form of generic List in my java application. I know how to do it in .net but not in java.

Kindly if any one knows plz let me know asap.

Thanking you,

Vishal Gilbile.

I have saved the data in local database in the WP7 . I have a Task table there . There may be 10,15,20 or... rows of data in that table . I want to send those number of rows of data to server using my wcf service . I am able to send the parameter to the server like i have a login method in the wcf which takes email and password as parameter returns boolean value true or false. Now I need to send these few 10,15,20 or... rows of data to the server via the WCF service and save in the server database. I am stuck at sending the number of rows to the wcf method. I have the Task data in list object. I have debugged and checked the presence of data.

Here is the code part
using (dbContext context = new dbContext()) {
IQueryable taskStatQuery = from t in context.Tasks select t;
List allTasksStatus = taskStatQuery.ToList();
WcfFSMSer.Win7MobileServiceClient client = new WcfFSMSer.Win7MobileServiceClient();
client.TestFunctionAsync(whatParamToSendForSendingFewRows);
client.TestFunctionCompleted += new
EventHandler<WcfFSMSer.TestFunctionCompletedEventArgs>(client_TestFunctionCompleted);
}
void client_TestFunctionCompleted(object sender, WcfFSMSer.TestFunctionCompletedEventArgs e) { }

I am able to get all tasks list in this variable List allTasksStatus. But the method is not accepting any collection object.
How to send these values from WP7 to WCF?
Thanks in advance

Create your proxy in this way, that won't convert List to Array...
