marshal/unmarshal a java method

I have a java class that contain a method with some logic control . This class is avaible as output via a webservice method to a java swing client .

My question sounds crazy but is it possible to marshal/unmarshal the method to make it available to the client when he generate the class from the wsdl file ?

Thanks.

ps:I'm using Metro/jax-ws and glassfish 3.1.1.

Marshalling" refers to the process of converting the data or the objects into a byte-stream, and "unmarshalling" is the reverse process of converting the byte-stream back into their original data or object. The conversion is achieved through "serialization".

The purpose of the "marshalling/unmarshalling" process is to transfer data between the RMI systems.

Why not provide this class (your VO) to the client so both the server and client are marshalling/unmarshalling the same class? Then both can use the your method...

You mean so you can send some logic down to the client to be executed there?
I'm afraid the answer is no - this is not how web services work.
All the logic is performed on the server side.

Why do you wish to do this?
