Returning strings containing XML/HTML from Web service call to SOAP::Lite 2005-02-15 - By Jones, Douglas 1
Back
I ran into a similar problem with SOAP, however it was using different
libraries in a different language. Unless this affecting a great many
characters that you can't predict, I would suggest creating a simple
find/replace method to search for '<', '>', etc. and replace them
with '<' and '>' and so on.
The only other suggestion that I can offer is that here we use Apache
Axis to handle SOAP encoding in our Java environment and we are able to
return Strings containing XML without the '<' and '>' characters being
encoded.
Good luck.

Subject: Returning strings containing XML/HTML from Web service call to
SOAP::Lite
I have a Web services application implemented on the J2EE SDK 1.4. One
of my methods returns a String[], to a Perl client based on SOAP::Lite.
The returned strings contain HTML (or XML) elements. When the strings
reach the Perl client, all the element delimiters ('<', '>', etc.) have
been replaced by their XML entity codes, i.e. <, >. Thus I can't
take the strings and build them into an HTML document template that
renders properly.
It seems improper that my client is exposed to this transformation.
Even though it may be necessary "under the covers" of SOAP, so that
XML-relevant characters in data don't get mixed up with the SOAP ones,
it seems the decoding should take place on the client side. Any ideas?
Thanks,
