Created an RFE for the Integrated Web Services Server to support VARCHAR parameters.

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=103873

Currently, varchar fields are exposed as structs from the PCML that is generated. This makes using this data type more cumbersome.
Example
Current JSON:
{
"INPUT_DATA" : { "length" : 23, "string" : "Please make this easier" }
}

Desired JSON:
{
"INPUT_DATA" : "Please make this easier"
}
