Exposed methods with a number of input parameters

Hi,

A couple of the legacy methods I have ported to Axis 2 take individual input parameters instead of an object and when I look at the wsdl none of the parameter names are defined there, is there a reason for this?

For example:

<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args0" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args1" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args2" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args3" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args4" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="args5" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>

If I look at the newer methods which are defined as taking an object as their single input parameter all the parameter names from the object are actually defined in the wsdl.

I was just wondering if someone could help me to understand this and if I should look to 'wrap' all those parameters in an input object for the web service call.

Thanks,

Paul
