SOAP web service with ActiveMQ produce strange response

I have a Mule Flow which is exposing a SOAP web service :-

<jms:activemq-connector name="Active_MQ" brokerURL="tcp://localhost:61616" validateConnections="true" doc:name="Active MQ"/>

<flow name="Flow1" doc:name="Flow1" >
<http:inbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="request-response" host="localhost" port="8082" path="mainData" doc:name="HTTP"/>
<cxf:jaxws-service serviceClass="com.test.services.schema.maindata.v1.MainData"  doc:name="SOAP"/>
<mulexml:object-to-xml-transformer doc:name="Object to XML"/>
<jms:outbound-endpoint queue="NewQueue" connector-ref="Active_MQ" doc:name="JMS" exchange-pattern="request-response"/>
<logger message="Response2 :- #[message.payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
<mulexml:xml-to-object-transformer doc:name="XML to Object"/>
</flow>


<flow name="flow2" doc:name="flow2" >
<jms:inbound-endpoint connector-ref="Active_MQ" address="jms://tcp:NewQueue" doc:name="JMS" exchange-pattern="request-response" disableTemporaryReplyToDestinations="true" responseTimeout="90000"/>
<set-variable variableName="SOAPRequest" value="#[message.payload]" doc:name="Variable"/>
<mulexml:xml-to-object-transformer doc:name="XML to Object"/>
<component class="com.test.services.schema.maindata.v1.Impl.MainDataImpl" doc:name="JavaMain_ServiceImpl">
<method-entry-point-resolver>
        <include-entry-point method="retrieveDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="insertDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="updateDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="deleteDataOperation"/>
</method-entry-point-resolver>
</component>
<mulexml:object-to-xml-transformer doc:name="Object to XML"/>
 </flow>

Now there are 4 methods in the web service :- retrieveDataOperation(), insertDataOperation() ,updateDataOperation() and deleteDataOperation() in the MainDataImpl class.. All the methods have different Response messages ... But the strange thing is that if I test the application in SOAP UI I will find both the operation insertDataOperation() and updateDataOperation() gives the same response although the response are different for both in MainDataImpl class .. I don't know why the updateDataOperation() method is showing the response of insertDataOperation() ..

I suspect in the present flow I have used the following :-

<component class="com.test.services.schema.maindata.v1.Impl.MainDataImpl" doc:name="JavaMain_ServiceImpl">
<method-entry-point-resolver>
        <include-entry-point method="retrieveDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="insertDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="updateDataOperation"/>
        <include-entry-point method="deleteDataOperation"/>
</method-entry-point-resolver>
</component>

My xsd file is as follows :-

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://services.test.com/schema/MainData/V1" xmlns:tns="http://services.test.com/schema/MainData/V1" elementFormDefault="qualified">


    <complexType name="dataRequest">
        <sequence>
            <element name="Id" type="int"></element>
            <element name="Name" type="string"></element>
            <element name="Age" type="int"></element>
            <element name="Designation" type="string"></element>
        </sequence>
    </complexType>

    <complexType name="dataResponse">
        <sequence>
            <element name="Response" type="string"></element>
            <element name="Id" type="int"></element>
            <element name="Name" type="string"></element>
            <element name="Age" type="int"></element>
            <element name="Designation" type="string"></element>
        </sequence>
    </complexType>

    <element name="insertDataRequest" type="tns:dataRequest"></element>

    <element name="insertDataResponse" type="tns:dataResponse"></element>


    <element name="retrieveDataRequest" type="tns:retrieveRequest"></element>

    <element name="retrieveDataResponse" type="tns:dataResponse"></element>

    <complexType name="retrieveRequest">
        <sequence>
            <element name="Id" type="int"></element>
        </sequence>
    </complexType>

    <element name="updateDataRequest" type="tns:dataRequest"></element>

    <element name="updateDataRespone" type="tns:dataResponse"></element>

    <complexType name="deleteRequest">
        <sequence>
            <element name="ID" type="int"></element>
        </sequence>
    </complexType>

    <element name="deleteDataRequest" type="tns:deleteRequest"></element>

    <element name="deleteDataResponse" type="tns:dataResponse"></element>
</schema>

Do I need to add something before JMS outbound endpoint so that it can differentiate both the methods .. Please help ..

I don't think the method-entry-point-resolver is useful at all: Mule can locate these 4 methods automatically.

The main issue comes from the fact that both insertDataOperation and updateDataOperation receive an object of the same type (DataRequest); while retrieveDataRequest receives a RetrieveRequest and deleteDataOperation receives a DeleteRequest.

Can you change the WSDL so insertDataOperation and updateDataOperation receive specific types?

If not, then you will have to carry along, from flow 1 to flow 2, the name of the actual method to invoke on the component, based on the flow variables that CXF creates (method, cxf_operation and cxf_service).

You may also want to use the invoke message processor instead of component to have easier control of what method is invoked.

So, as per David's suggestion, the working solution is setting methodname in property

 <set-property propertyName="methodName" value="#[cxf_operation.localPart]" doc:name="methodNameProperty"/>

and then invoking it in Java implementation class :-

<component class="com.test.services.schema.maindata.v1.Impl.MainDataImpl" doc:name="Java">
    <property-entry-point-resolver property="methodName"/> 
 </component>
