>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: WSS4J Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.5.8
>         Environment: Windows/ Solaris

>
> for noraml user name token password mechanism
> if client sets:
> user name = "user1"
> password="" // empty string
> Then WSS4j processes it as null. instead it should process it as empty string 
> of size 0 or throw exception as it does in case of username= null
> password= "   "// blank string with size>0
> Then it works fine.
> note: for password disgest empty password is replaced by default digest.
> It seems that the password is default initialized to null and is not being 
> reinitialized if string size 0.
> Appropriate correction or exc4eption mechanism suggested
