                 Key: CXF-2978
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-2978
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAXB Databinding
    Affects Versions: 2.1.8
         Environment: JSE 1.5 on Win XP
            Reporter: Staffan
            Assignee: Daniel Kulp
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 2.2.7


If you have a function that returns an empty list  the result will be null on 
client. Even If add a Responsewrapper to the interface it doesn't work. If have 
attached a little test project / program:

Interface:
@WebService(targetNamespace = "http://cxf.apache.org/demo/CustomerService/1/";, 
name = "CustomerService")
@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.DOCUMENT, use = SOAPBinding.Use.LITERAL)
public interface CustomerService {

        @WebMethod(action = "findCustomer", operationName = "findCustomer")
        public @WebResult(name = "customerList")
        List<Customer> findCustomer();
        
        
        @WebMethod(action = "findCustomer2", operationName = "findCustomer2")
        @ResponseWrapper(className="demo.service.CustomerListResponse")
        public @WebResult(name = "customerList")
        List<Customer> findCustomer2();

}

The Implementation:

@WebService(name = "CustomerService", serviceName = "CustomerService", 
targetNamespace = "http://cxf.apache.org/demo/CustomerService/1/";, 
endpointInterface = "demo.service.CustomerService")
public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService {

        public List<Customer> findCustomer() {
                // very stupid method
                return new ArrayList<Customer>();
        }

        public List<Customer> findCustomer2() {
                // another very stupid method
                return new ArrayList<Customer>();
        }

}

And this is the main programm:
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
                new Server();
                System.out.println("Server ready...");

                // Now Call the Service
                JaxWsProxyFactoryBean factory = new JaxWsProxyFactoryBean();
                factory.getInInterceptors().add(new LoggingInInterceptor());

                factory.getOutInterceptors().add(new LoggingOutInterceptor());

                factory.setServiceClass(CustomerService.class);

                factory.setAddress("http://localhost:9000/CustomerService";);

                CustomerService client = (CustomerService) factory.create();

                System.out.println("call findCustomer()");

                List<Customer> result = client.findCustomer();


                if (result != null)
                        System.out.println("Listsize: " + result.size());
                else
                        System.out.println("List is null: " + result);

                System.out.println("call findCustomer2()");

                result = client.findCustomer2();

                if (result != null) 
                         System.out.println("Listsize: " + result.size());
                else
                        System.out.println("List is null: " + result);

                System.out.println("Server exiting");
                System.exit(0);
        }

This will print the following output:

Server ready...
