Ok, I'm not even sure if the topic is right... here's what I'm trying to do...
I need to call a webservice which has as a parameter a base 64 binary field. This needs to contain a password field in an encrypted (string) form. This has been provided to me as a string and it is this exact value I need to send to the webservice. So I tried first sending it as a string but when I run ethereal (which shows me what's actually being sent to the webservice) I see that no data is being sent for the password. So I tried using ByteArray instead - and this shows data being sent - but not the data I tried to store in the ByteArray... I tried storing the string into the ByteArray using writeUTF, writeMultiByte, looping through the string and storing each char code in each ByteArray element... no luck as yet - the value of the ByteArray being sent to the Service always seems to have a value different from the value I'm trying to set it to! I'm certain this is a case of pure ignorance on my part - does anyone both understand what I'm trying to do and also understand why it's not right ?! If so... help!!!! Thanks, Jamie.
