Literal XML Interop Problem !

[Simon Fell]

I'm trying to call the Apache SOAP 2.2 sample
AddressBook::getAllListings, which is a literal XML request/response.
The Apache based client works, the equivalent pocketSOAP code produces
an error, i can't see why,

Here's the Apache generated request that works

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema";>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:getAllListings xmlns:ns1="urn:AddressFetcher"
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap/literalxml";>
</ns1:getAllListings>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Here's the pocketSOAP generated request that fails
<S:Envelope
        S:encodingStyle='http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap/literalxml'
        xmlns:S='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'
        xmlns:E='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'
        xmlns:a='urn:AddressFetcher'>
<S:Body><a:getAllListings></a:getAllListings>
</S:Body></S:Envelope>

AFAIKS, this is syntactically identical, yet generates this error

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance";

<SOAP-ENV:Body>
