[jbossws-users] [JBossWS] - Getting ClassCast Exception in case of malformed webservice

Hi, i'm using jbowss ws native with validation turned on to ensure the requests and responses are valid. In case of a xml-valid document the validation is working fine and I'm getting validation errors from the validator. But if i'm sending back a totally corrupt xml message, missing closing tags, etc. then i'm getting the following exception which is not very intuitive: | Caused by: javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jboss.ws.core.soap.TextImpl cannot be cast to org.jboss.ws.core.soap.SOAPElementI | mpl | at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.client.ClientImpl.handleRemoteException(ClientImpl.java:404) | at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.client.ClientImpl.invoke(ClientImpl.java:314) | at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.client.ClientProxy.invoke(ClientProxy.java:172) | at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.client.ClientProxy.invoke(ClientProxy.java:152) | at $Proxy311.bookOrders(Unknown Source) | at com.skidata.dta.server.co.v3_0.classic.impl.BookOrdersHelper.invoke(BookOrdersHelper.java:46) | ... 12 more | Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jboss.ws.core.soap.TextImpl cannot be cast to org.jboss.ws.core.soap.SOAPElementImpl | at org.jboss.ws.core.CommonSOAPBinding.getParameterFromMessage(CommonSOAPBinding.java:894) | at org.jboss.ws.core.CommonSOAPBinding.unbindResponseMessage(CommonSOAPBinding.java:634) | at org.jboss.ws.core.CommonClient.invoke(CommonClient.java:380) | at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.client.ClientImpl.invoke(ClientImpl.java:302) | ... 16 more | I digged into the code a little bit and found out that the actual XML parser exception which i'd like to get is ignored because the SOAPMessageUnMarshallerHTTP is creating a MessageFactory with ignoreParseErrors = true. (line 82 in 3.1.1 source) | MimeHeaders mimeHeaders = getMimeHeaders(metadata); | soapMsg = getMessageFactory().createMessage(mimeHeaders, inputStream, true); | Which catches the Parse Excpetion and simply returns null in case of a parse error. Is there another way than changing the source code to change this behaviour, because i'd like to use the original distribution and not apatched one which will be a mess to update later... thanks gandulf View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4231537#...
