Newlines/spaces in SOAPMessage

[alfred.rsa]

Hi guys

I have code that works when I call it from a stand-alone application, but when I call it from within JBoss, I get a NPE from the Web service I am calling.
The problem seems to be newline or space characters between the XML tags of the SOAP message. When I use the stand-alone code I get the following output from SOAPMessage().writeTo(System.out)

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><SOAP-ENV:Body><searchDocDataRequest><f_nr>test_fno</f_nr><userid>cnt_usr</userid><items><cheque format="tiff"><account_nr>62001869538</account_nr></cheque></items></searchDocDataRequest></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

From within JBoss I get:

13:41:03,491 INFO [STDOUT] <env:Envelope xmlns:env='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'><env:Body><searchDocDataRequest><f_nr>test_fno
13:41:03,491 INFO [STDOUT] </f_nr>
13:41:03,491 INFO [STDOUT] <userid>cnt_usr
13:41:03,491 INFO [STDOUT] </userid>
13:41:03,507 INFO [STDOUT] <items><cheque format='tiff'><account_nr>62001869538
13:41:03,507 INFO [STDOUT] </account_nr>
13:41:03,507 INFO [STDOUT] </cheque>
13:41:03,507 INFO [STDOUT] </items>
13:41:03,523 INFO [STDOUT] </searchDocDataRequest>
13:41:03,523 INFO [STDOUT] </env:Body></env:Envelope>

The only difference being the prefix and the newline/space.
Does anybody have any idea on how I can remove this?

Using WireShark to intercept the transmission, I found that the JBoss SOAPElement.setvalue implementation seems
to add a carriage return linefeed combination to my text which causes the Web Service to crash:

When I use Sun's SAAJ this doesnot happen
Any ideas?

This reminds me of something related to CR/LF when dealing with signatures.
Where do you get the soap elements content from? are you reading them from file?

Hi Alessio

Thanks for the reply. No I create the SOAP message by getting an instance of the SOAP MessageFactory and then adding elements to the body.
When i use the SoapMessage writeTo method to a file, it contains no CRLF pairs, but when I intercept the message using WireShark, I see the CRLF's.
So it seems as if the SOAPConnection call method or underlying transport is adding the CRLF's

Using the exact same code in GlassFish, the CRLF's are never added and it works fine, but I do not want to use GlassFish
