[MOBY-dev] Calling moby-async category services

[Sylvie Huchet]

Hi Paul,

It seems that MobyRequest does not handle both synchronous and asynchronous
calls tranparently...

The invokeService() method that can be called for asynchronous calls does not
defines any handler to manage asynchronous calls. And thus the
performAsyncSOAPRequest method does not return any result.
In addition, the asynchronous part of the invokeService does not initialize the
contentsXML which leads to a NullPointerException.

Regards,
Sylvie.
