Hi Navaz --
Just to expand Shane's point a bit... HTTP is 8-bit clean, and there
should be no problem inserting binary data in CDATA sections as
suggested:
<binaryData><![CDATA[${byteString}]]></binaryData>
But if the binary data (in '${byteString}') ever contained ']]', the XML
will be no longer well-formed. This is put well here:
http://www.cdatazone.org/index.php?/archives/4-CDATA-and-encryptedbinary
-data.html
So it's preferable to hex or base-64 encode the data. However, as
base-64 encoding never uses ']' or even '&', you can skip the CDATA
altogether and do something like this:
<base64EncodedBinaryData>${base64EncodedByteString}</base64EncodedBina
ryData>

Sonam Chauhan

(Large grain of salt) I've never used either SOAP or Beanshell, but I
don't see how you can append straight binary data into a SOAP request
regardless of how you retrieve it. CDATA is _Character_ data by
definition. If you want to pass binary over http, you'll have to encode
it (presumably base64).
