-------------------------------------
Assign To: Jochen Wiedmann
> Trying to serialise an unserialisable class breaks XML format spec
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XMLRPC-71
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-71
> Project: XML-RPC
> Type: Bug
> Components: Source
> Versions: 2.0
> Environment: Linux (FC2 server, Suse 9.1 client), Java 1.4 on server, 1.5 on
> client, Tomcat 4.1 on server
> Reporter: Chris Wilson
> Assignee: Jochen Wiedmann
>
> I tried to make a method return a vector containing a Hashtable containing a
> Long, and invoke that method via XML-RPC (Apache XML-RPC on both client and
> server). Here is the result (pasted from Ethereal, reformatted for
> readability):
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <methodResponse>
> <params>
> <param><value><array><data>
> <value><struct>
> <member>
> <name>version</name>
> <value><int>2</int></value>
> </member>

> </methodResponse>
> This is malformed XML, and the client understandably takes a dim view of it:
