import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.WebMethod;
    @WebService(serviceName="frameService", portName="framePort", name="frame",wsdlLocation = "WEB-INF/primary.wsdl")
    @BindingType(value=javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPBinding.SOAP11HTTP_MTOM_BINDING)
    public class frameserver implements Serializable{
    @WebMethod
    public Object send()
    {

     Object o=new Object();
     JFrame f=new JFrame("khaled");
     JLabel l=new JLabel("hiba");

NO!
Anyway why would you want to do something like that?

bcs as a client is requesting certain data from my database remotely,so i want to return certain records from my database to present it in a jtable so i want to return a jfraame.but in a normal method not used in a webservice i can return a jframe,why using jaxws i cant do so??

Well you got your facts wrong. Your Swing application should query service, service should process request and return data in some for of object. This object is then taken over by Swing and showed to user. Because you just want to show some data, example user details (username, real name, DOB, email address etc) you not gone push the whole java framework from your webservice. Besides recipient of the request doesn't have to be necessary Java application

apreciate ur response,
yes for sure the client side is not a java applications.i gave an example only,i can use a server side program as jsp or servlet to call the webservice,but i want to know as kind of curiosity is it possible to return a jtable for example in this web service that i m calling.bcs normally i programed many small applications and returned a jframe,but this is not the case in jaxws,i want to know only why??

For once you are sevice provider you provide responce to request and do not add any unnecessary extras.Secondly why would you want to push an elephant object that will take XYZ amount of time when you can push small ant and recepient. Lastly you do not know what version of Java recipient may run, it may be older or newer then what you are using to create response and may not have some of the stuff you reffering in your object because it was added in version after it or it was removed for some reason.
