XPathParam Annotation Only Loading First Element From SOAP Request

[Temujin_12]

I have the following annotated endpoint method:

	@PayloadRoot(localPart = "GetUserRequest", namespace = "http://mydomain.com/schemas/MyService")
	public Source provisionDevice(
			@XPathParam("//ns:Username") String username,
			@XPathParam("//ns:Password") String password)) {
		LOG.debug("\n" + 
			      "username: " + username + "\n" + 
			      "password: " + password + "\n");
		return null;
	}

Using the following SOAP request:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
        <soapenv:Body>
                <GetUserRequest xmlns="http://mydomain.com/schemas/MyService">
                        <Username>USERNAME</Username>
                        <Password>PASSWORD</Password>
                </GetUserRequest >
        </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

... the annotated method is only ever able to get the first GetUserRequest child element from the SOAP request. In the soap request above, only username in the annotated method will be set. But if I switch <Password> and <Username> around like so:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
        <soapenv:Body>
                <GetUserRequest xmlns="http://mydomain.com/schemas/MyService">
                        <Password>PASSWORD</Password>
                        <Username>USERNAME</Username>
                </GetUserRequest >
        </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

... only password in the annotated endpoint method is set.

What's going on here?

BTW: I've tried several different kinds of XPaths (more explicit ones, namespace agnostic ones, etc.), but to no avail.

Here's the log of what's going on:

[Temujin_12]

I figured out what the problem was.

I noticed this in the log:

org.springframework.ws.server.MessageTracing.received  - Received request [SaajSoapMessage {http://mydomain.com/schemas/MyService}GetUserRequest]

Realizing that I didn't necessarily want to use SAAJ, I added an AxiomSoapMessageFactory to my beans (see 4.1.3.2 from docs):

<bean id="messageFactory" class="org.springframework.ws.soap.axiom.AxiomSoapMessageFactory">
    <property name="payloadCaching" value="true"/>
</bean>

Now all of the endpoint parameters come through.

Hope this helps someone!
