Hi there,
We were working with the latest released version of kXML-RPC (version 0.6)
and found a bug in XmlRpcParser.java.
In the method parseParams() there is the following:
while( parser.peek().getType() != Xml.END_TAG ) {
parser.read( Xml.START_TAG, "", "param" );
// Retrieve a Java representation of the XML-RPC parameter value
params.addElement( parseValue() ); // *** BUG ***
parser.skip();
There should be a call to parser.skip() before the line marked with BUG above.
If any whitespace exists between the opening of the "param" start tag and the
value, a parse exception is thrown, as the implementation of parseValue()
expects the next read() to be a start tag for "value" but instead it gets the
whitespace.
If you have been notified of this already then apologies, but a search of the
mailing lists returned nothing relevant and the online view of the source is not
working, so I can't verify if it has already been fixed.
Thanks,
Alan Slattery
