I am having 3 nodes in my flow:

MQInput -> Java compute --> soap request.

I am accepting a message from a queue and then using the payload of that message i am creating another message which i need to send to a web service.

The problem here is that the message that i receive from MQInput node has blob as payload and when i copy paste this in the other message (SOAP) and send it to a web service. The webservice will treat this blob characters as string.

I cannot use any RCD in the flow or do some parsing on the input queue.

The only option i can see is to convert blob payload back to readable and meaningful form so that i can send that message to soap request node.

I have tried the option of converting blob to Hex string using the below mentioned code:

byte[] b = inroot.getFirstElementByPath("BLOB/BLOB").getValue().getBytes();
String result = "";
for (int i=0; i < b.length; i++) {
result +=
Integer.toString( ( b[i] & 0xff ) + 0x100, 16).substring( 1 );
}

but the variable "result" is again meaningless for a webservice.

Can someone guide...
