Support rpc-encoded clients with Axis2

We are working on migrating an existing webservice from Axis 1.2 to Axis 2.0 along with changing the WSDL from rpc-encoded format to document literal (wrapped) format to support .NET clients.

In addition, we would also like to provide backward compatibility to the existing client (using rpc-encoded) once the migration is
completed.

However, since Axis2.0 does not support rpc encoded format (http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/Axis2-rpc-support.html)
we are wondering if there possibly exists a solution to this issue, where in rpc-encoded clients can still work with AXIS2.0.

Please help share the approach if this is indeed achievable.
