http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20482 Handling whitespace in XML-RPC call arguments Summary: Handling whitespace in XML-RPC call arguments Product: XML-RPC Version: 1.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Source AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've got an application that performs an XML-RPC call that contains an argument that is an array of strings. I encountered a problem when a string in the array is set to all spaces, when the actual method call is invoked the string is empty. It no longer contains the spaces. I did a little debugging and found that the removal of the spaces occured within the default XML parser, MinML. Using a test program and running MinML outside of XML-RPC I found that the parser was not emiting characters if an element contained only spaces. Running my simple test file through other parsers (xerces and Piccolo), these programs did emit the spaces. Example file contained <t1> </t1>
