APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The following exception occurred when handling a JAX-RPC
request containing whitespace in a WS-Coordination context:
java.lang.ClassCastException:
com.ibm.ws.webservices.engine.xmlsoap.Text incompatible with
javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement
at com.ibm.ws.wscoor.CoordinationContext
.extractFromSOAPHeader(CoordinationContext.java:221)
at com.ibm.ws.wscoor.CoordinationContext
.extractFromSOAPHeader(CoordinationContext.java:154)
at com.ibm.ws.wsba.WSBAContextExtractor
.extractContext(WSBAContextExtractor.java:107)

*                      thrown when processing whitespace in    *

*                      JAX-RPC request                         *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The algorithm that parses the WS-Coordination
CoordinationContext on an inbound JAX-RPC request assumed that
the Iterator returned by SOAPElement.getChildElements()
contained elements that were all of type
javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement. This is incorrect and caused the
ClassCastException when whitespace was encountered.

Problem conclusion

The algorithm was modified to tolerate whitespace when parsing
the WS-Coordination context.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 7.0.0.43, 8.0.0.14, 8.5.5.12 and 9.0.0.4.  Please
