Using the Web Service Consumer with Mule CE

I'm in the process of migrating my cxf jaxws client to use the new HTTP connector. The mule docs say to do this:

<cxf:jaxws-client
     clientClass="org.apache.hello_world_soap_http.SOAPService"
     port="SoapPort"
     wsdlLocation="classpath:/wsdl/hello_world.wsdl"
     operation="greetMe"/>
<outbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:63081/services/greeter"/>

but isn't this still using the old http implementation?

Next I attempted to convert it to use Web Service Consumer. All the examples I've seen use the DataMapper but this is not available for Mule CE.

Without the DataMapper I get the following error when running my app:

An invalid return type "interface javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader" was specified for transformer "JAXBMarshallerTransformer" (org.mule.api.transformer.TransformerException) at org.mule.module.xml.transformer.jaxb.JAXBMarshallerTransformer.doTransform(JAXBMarshallerTransformer.java:125)

Is the Web Service Consumer intended to only be used with the DataMapper? How do I use it without the DataMapper? What type of object do I send Web Service Consumer if not a jaxb object?

Is there a way to use cxf jaxws-client with the new http request-config?

Thanks.

Converting the JAXB object to a string resolved the error.
