Hmmm. I thought of that. I tried to skip it by setting in.position(2) and
then in.position(1). But I still get an exception.
The funny thing is that the client is not sending a NULL anyway. It's a
simple String of XML text.
Is there a better way to convert from a byte buffer to a string? Some better
built in method maybe?
Regards.

getString(...) reads a NUL terminated string. From the log output it
seems like the first byte in the buffer is 00, aka NUL. Hence you'll get
an empty string from getString(...).
