RE: XML parameter types?

[Glen Daniels]

Axis will automatically escape any strings you send, so all the "<"s will turn into "&lt;"s, etc.  If you take a look at test.encoding.TestString, you'll see a number of tests which make sure that we correctly pump variously contorted strings through the system.  If you send "<id>1234</id>" as a String, you'll get "<id>1234</id>" out the other side.   --Glen -----Original Message----- From: Chris Ruegger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 7:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: XML parameter types?   I have a requirement that the parameters we send to/from our SOAP service are themselves XML "documents" or "strings". Question: Can I send an XML string as a SOAP service parameter, e.g. suppose I wanted this string to be available as parameter 1 to my web services method:   <order> <id>1234</id> <name>foo</foo> </order>     Would this confuse SOAP with the angle brackets? What XMLType would I use for such a parameter? I'm having difficulty finding a list of all the legal parameter types, pointers appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.
