Yes, by "non-namespaced" I mean something similar to your example. In
particular its an attribute I've added to an element in a SOAP envelope
using the following code;
javax.xml.soap.Name myAttribName =
soapFactory.createName("myattrib");
mySOAPElement.addAttribute(myAttribName, "a test");
Running the canonicalizer over the resulting soap envelope throws the null
pointer exception.
Does that imply that SOAPElement.addAttribute(Name name, String value) uses
DOM Level 1 calls?
The following, however, works:
javax.xml.soap.Name myAttribName =
soapFactory.createName("myattrib","myns","http://www.foo.com/myns";);
mySOAPElement.addAttribute(myAttribName, "a test");

Stephen,
When you say "non-namespaced" does that mean you have added via a DOM
level 1 call, or simply that the XML looks something like :
<myns:elt1 attributewithoutns="a test"/>
The latter should work. I haven't tried it myself, but my understanding
is the former is likely to fail (use L2 calls instead, with a null NS -
e.g. setAttributeNS).
Cheers,
Berin
