Bug in webservice of 1.1.2?

cburghardt — Wed, 28 Dec 2005 17:25:56 GMT

I try to create a new content node of type pdf with the following code:NamedValue[] props = new NamedValue[] {new NamedValue("{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}name", name)};CMLCreate create = new CMLCreate(name, parentReference, "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}content", props);

This is definitely a bug and not limited to pdf files (of course) but can be reproduced with all binary content - at least here.
The content is transferred like this at the moment:
Client uses ContentService and writes byte[]. The byte[] is transformed to a string in ContentWebService:205. AbstractContentWriter creates a byte[] from that string (yuck!) with the specified encoding.
One minor problem can be found in ContentWebService:
writer.putContent(new String(content));
You should use the encoding that is specified by the ContentFormat as the ContentWriter does the same.
But I still do not know where the problem is - perhaps Axis destroys my data. The default encoding of my platform is UTF-8 so this shouldn't be a problem.
