Hello!

kSOAP is really cool and especally the self-made serilization makes the=20
whole process much easier und more flexible than hardcoding the whole=20
stuff like I do now.

Currently my Objekts have a Constructor with a XMLElement as paramater.=20
With the values stored in this element the object is created. Really ugly=
...

However currently I dont have problems if I=B4ve "methods" that return=20
multiple things even if I exactly know how much. I simply run a loop as=20
long as there are no xml-elements left in stream and add each object to=20
a vector.
Can I emulate this behaviour somehow in kSOAP? The only idea I have is=20
to submit a single object with a string in it. Out of this string I=20
could generate my objects. This would work, but I belive this is really=20
bad for performance.

PS: Under J2SE creating a String out of a StringBuffer or vice versa=20
doesn't allocate new memory for the content as long as you don't change=20
the content of one of the two corresponding objects.
Is this also true for J2ME, how doesn this affect to jSOAP if I create=20
my objects like explained above? (I plan to use 1.2 because I really=20
need a stable and reliable enviroment and 2.0 seems a little bit two=20
experimental for my needs)

PS2: Thanks a lot for all the help and of course the software itself. It=20
makes live so much easier!
