I want to test a web service I'm developing, using the "Test..." feature of WMB Toolkit 8.0.0.2.
The input to my web service:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tns0:Envelope
xmlns:int0="IntervenienteTypeBPM" xmlns:tns0="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:tns1="Entities"
xmlns:tns2="TipologiaTypeBPM"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<tns0:Header/>
<tns0:Body>
<tns1:NewEntidade>
<int0:type>
<tns2:id>1</tns2:id>
<tns2:code>0000</tns2:code>
<tns2:description>Não especificada</tns2:description>
</int0:type>
</tns1:NewEntidade>
</tns0:Body>
</tns0:Envelope>
|
Since I'm sending a non-ASCII character, MB is throwing an exception at the beginning of the flow (in SOAP Input) saying:
| Code: |
| An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xffffffff) was found in the element content of the document. |
This error is referring my description element. Since I'm sending in the Envelope encoding="UTF-8" should there be a problem?
I also confirmed that my workspace and project are using UTF-8.
Am I missing something?

It was a typo. My message is bigger than that, and in this post I decided to translate it from portuguese to english. Anyway, it is edited  |

Are you sure it's complaining about the description element?
Are you sure the XML document is actually in UTF-8? |

100% sure. If I replace "Não" with "Nao" I can easily run my flow without a problem.

Actually I don't know. I made an invocation via SOAPUI, using UTF-8 and the verified that the flow is working!
I thought this could be a problem with the Toolkit, therefore I checked Eclipse's encoding, my workspace's encoding and my project's encoding and it is using UTF-8. Am I missing anything else?
I basically created my input on notepad++, pasted it on the Test... window, and it is giving me the error.  |

I don't think there's anything wrong with the test tool being used.
I don't know Notepad++ well enough to know if it's created the text you're copying/pasting as UTF-8 or not. |

I've never had any issues with Notepad++ or ultraEdit saving files in UTF-8
make sure you have told it to default to utf

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

I was copy-pasting my input XML on the the Text Editor, and getting that error.
I tried saving an .xml file encoded with UTF-8 and sending it to the Message Broker Test Client instead of just copying the text xml itself, and now it works.
Conclusion: The Message Broker Test Client uses a text window that is using some non UTF-8 encoding. |

A good number of us around here use Rfhutil for this sort of work.
It is part of the IH03 support pack. Handles UTF-8 files very well.

I was not aware that RfhUtil supports Web Services ? Is this a new feature ?

If you really want to get funky, you can switch the perspective to "Web".
Then right click your WSDL file and then "Web Services->Test with Web Services Explorer".
Have Fun!
I wonder what the RAD folks do... |
