from my understanding the contentlength is therefore -1 if the request body is sent 'chunked' as defined by http 1.1
ah, yeah, could be. i haven't ever used chunked, so i'm not educated about it.
for this reason i checked for the inputstream not being null and did not check the content-length. what do you think?
before my change, there were many spurious debug "Unable to build an XML Document from the request body" messages that polluted my debug log and freaked out my system administrators. it seemed as if this method was trying to parse xml off an input stream that had no data to be read.
maybe there's a better way to short circuit parsing when there's no data. perhaps InputStream.available()?
