Hi,
first of all I know that this is more a question for the user list but
nobody could help me there - so apologies but I'll try as I don't know
how to continue. I've a webservice (Axis 1.4) that connects to an
Alfresco server and stores metadata from emails (like subject, sender,
...). This works fine with ISO-* or UTF-8 encoded emails. But once I
have an email with more "exotic" character sets like KOI8-R (russian)
I get an error on the server side because of invalid characters (like
0x1e). I know that no control characters are in the content so I
watched the traffic with tcpmon and noticed that all characters were
totally screwed up.
So I traced the Axis code and saw that the characters were encoded
with &#<hex>; in the SoapBody. Afterwards the DOM tree is serialized
in the DoAllSender class and then the characters are broken in the
generated XML. When I switched the encoding of the Soap Message to
KOI8-R instead of UTF-8 the characters showed up fine in the tcpmon
but then the server reports an error about a different illegal
character (0x1) which is probably because the message is converted to
UTF-8 at a certain step.
So I guess my questions is: what is the proposed way to transmit those
characters to a webservice (apart from Base64 encoding them...)?
Many thanks
Carsten
