----------------------------------
Summary: Incorrect return type of AttachmentPart.getContent()
Key: CXF-4574
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4574
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.6.2
Environment: Windows 7 + Oracle jdk 1.6.0_29
Reporter: Han Hong Fang
The java doc of javax.xml.soap.AttachmentPart.getContent() says:
Gets the content of this AttachmentPart object as a Java object. The type of
the returned Java object depends on (1) the DataContentHandler object that is
used to interpret the bytes and (2) the Content-Type given in the header.
For the MIME content types "text/plain", "text/html" and "text/xml", the
DataContentHandler object does the conversions to and from the Java types
corresponding to the MIME types. For other MIME types,the DataContentHandler
object can return an InputStream object that contains the content data as raw
bytes.
A SAAJ-compliant implementation must, as a minimum, return a java.lang.String
object corresponding to any content stream with a Content-Type value of
text/plain, a javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource object corresponding to a
content stream with a Content-Type value of text/xml, a java.awt.Image object
corresponding to a content stream with a Content-Type value of image/gif or
image/jpeg. For those content types that an installed DataContentHandler object
does not understand, the DataContentHandler object is required to return a
java.io.InputStream object with the raw bytes.
But in cxf 2.6.2, when MIME content type is "text/xml", the return type of
AttachmentPart.getContent() is java.io.ByteArrayInputStream, which doesn't
comply with the java doc.
