                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-219
             Project: WSS4J
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WSS4J Core
    Affects Versions: 1.5.8
         Environment: Windows/ Solaris

for noraml user name token password mechanism
if client sets:
user name = "user1"
password="" // empty string

Then WSS4j processes it as null. instead it should process it as empty string 
of size 0 or throw exception as it does in case of username= null

password= "   "// blank string with size>0
Then it works fine.

note: for password disgest empty password is replaced by default digest.

It seems that the password is default initialized to null and is not being 
reinitialized if string size 0.

Appropriate correction or exc4eption mechanism suggested
