Our (audit and CEI) log implementation creates events whenever
a variable has been changed.
We use the toString() method on each part of the (WSIF-)
message to write the contents of the variable to the log.
This works fine if the associated message type has only simple
parts.
However, for complex parts, we get just an object reference
printed which is not what the customer wants to see.
Problem conclusion
We have coded methods to give a deep string representation for
the complex parts.
