Support for character sets other than UTF8 ?
I need to control what type of character encoding to use when talking SOAP.
In particular I need to use UTF7 when talking to an embedded device.
Does anyone know how and if this is supported by Apache SOAP v2.2 ?

Leif,
I have found a way to get the HTTP header to specify a utf-7 charset. However,
I do not believe there is a way to get the XML declaration string to specify
anything but utf-8, because it comes from Constants.java:
// XML Declaration string
public static final String XML_DECL =
"<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\r\n";
The attached file is a modified version of the GetAddress sample that specifies
utf-7 in the HTTP header, i.e. the request looks like this:
POST /soap/servlet/rpcrouter HTTP/1.0
Host: localhost
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-7
Content-Length: 488
SOAPAction: ""
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:getAddressFromName xmlns:ns1="urn:AddressFetcher"
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<nameToLookup xsi:type="xsd:string">John Doe</nameToLookup>
</ns1:getAddressFromName>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
