The xsd deserialization for integer types is awfully broken. For instance, calling the getElementAsInt() API for the XML fragment
"<foo>30a</foo>" I would have expected it to either return 30 or ideally throw an exception. Instead, I get a value of 300 :( Similarly, calling "<foo>30 </foo>" returns a value of 300 ! I think the following change might have introduced this bug. http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/webservices/axis/trunk/c/src/soap/xsd/Integer.cpp?r1=261408&r2=261497&diff_format=h Further, why aren't we validating against the maximum and minimum value for each type ? For instance, getElementAsShort() for the XML fragment "<foo1>32768</foo1>" returns -1. I would have expected AxisC++ to throw an exception saying it exceeds the max value of short instead of silently returning wrong values. I am surprised why this bug hasn't been seen till now. Regardless, I think it should be top priority to fix this issue. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
