[7.7.1] SOAP marshaler for TwoByteString

We recently ran across a bug with a SOAP server we run as part of our application. Our application was running with the Czech locale active, and when trying to return a string via SOAP, we got a NoMarshalerSignal error, because there's no marshaler defined for TwoByteString.

Looking at XMLObjectBinding class>>defaultSmalltalk2XMLMap, there are entries defined for String, ByteString, ByteSymbol, FourByteSymbol, and TwoByteSymbol, but not TwoByteString, FourByteString, or Symbol.

It seems to me that, either there should be entries for all of the String subclasses, or the marshaler lookup should walk up the class hierarchy looking for a marshaler. Am I missing a setting somewhere that would allow this to happen? Or am I doing something else wrong?

Thanks,

Randy

We encountered the same some VW versions ago and since then have the
following in all soaping deploys:

"make soap marshal anytyped TwoByteStrings as Strings"
XMLObjectBinding sm2XMLTypeRegistry
at: #TwoByteString
ifAbsentPut: [ XMLObjectBinding sm2XMLTypeRegistry at: #String ].

Thanks, Jan.

We've done a similar thing to get around the problem, too, but I thought I should report it.
