This all started because I was trying to implement the compression from Simon Fell's website (http://www.pocketsoap.com/weblog/2005/10/1565.html) and just having difficulty getting it to work.  I added the

-Daxis.ClientConfigFile=xxxxclient-config.wsdd as a VM argument in Eclipse.

During the DoLogin() the loginresult (LR) is null.  Even if I put in an incorrect password, the lr=binding.loging() executes and no error is produced.   I know HarryK said he was able to get it to work, but I am still missing something.

Any ideas?

Thanks Mike
