RE: Problem with < and > as parameter value

[Rob Englander]

That's because you can't have special characters
like < and > in your strings.  Try encoding them
using base64 encoding.

Subject: Problem with < and > as parameter value


Hello

If I call a service and supply a parameter with <aa> as parameter value this
is interpret in XML correctly as &lt;aa&gt;, but reaching Apache Soap (ver
2.2 on tomcat 3.2.3) I get the following error message:
Exception: java.lang.Exception:SOAPException= SOAP-ENV:Client, Parsing
error, response was: The element type "aa" must be terminated by the
matching end-tag "
".

Is this a bug in apache soap toolkit?
Or have I missed some setting?

Thanks in advance,
Micael Ericsson
