Issue with HexBinary Encoding
-----------------------------

                 Key: CXF-823
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-823
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JAXB Databinding
    Affects Versions: 2.0

We found an issue with the HexBinary encoding being performed while sending a 
input message. 
Attached is the JAXWS Service class, needed client, WSDL etc. 

If you look at the WSDL, it has a service<MyTestService> and port<MyTest>
The input for the operation<echoInOutSimpleTypes> in that port<MyTest> 
comprises of part<varBase64Binary> of type<xsd:base64Binary> and 
part<varHexBinary> of type<xsd:hexBinary>. The same byte array is encoded using 
these two encoding schemes.
So i think before converting to SOAP message, the part<varBase64Binary> should 
be encoded using Base64 encoding and the  part<varHexBinary> should be encoded 
using Hexadecimal encoding.
But when we intercept and parse the SOAP message, we can see that both the 
encoded values are same. (i.e. the byte array encoded with the two encoding 
schemes is same)
Encoding the same byte array separately using other utility for Base64 and 
Hexadecimal encoding shows that the value encoded using Hexadecimal encoding is 
wrong(Base64 encoding seems to be fine). In the test case the byte array 
comprises of {-128, 0, 127) which should be encoded as 80007F, wheres in the 
SOAP message we see it as gAB.
Looks like this is a bug. 

Please correct me if i'm wrong or i'm making any wrong assumptions.
