Thanks for the response Russel,
I tried with the CDATA earlier on before sending the message, but the
JAXRPC runtime SOAP handlers still treat it as a string
and escape whatever is in the CDATA section: <![CDATA[ ....... ]]>
I wanted to see if i could tweek the JAXRPC runtime classes (since the
java code is supplied) to ignore the escaping of the characters,
since the JAXRPC runtime classes do the encoding.
Thanks,
Mohit

Subject: Re: JAXRPC - "string" as return params - escape chars problem
Try wrapping your string inside a CDATA block:
myString = "CDATA[[" + myString + "]]";
A SOAP engine will wrap data inside a CDATA block if it wants to ignore
what's in that block. Since engines do it, I don't see why you can't.
I've never tried this, though, and I'm not exactly sure about the format
of
the CDATA block (ie., does it really have two [[ and ]]? I think so). You
may want to do a google search for CDATA to find out for sure.
