>             Project: CXF
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
>         Environment: Windows 7 + Oracle jdk 1.6.0_29

> The java doc of javax.xml.soap.AttachmentPart.getContent() says:
> Gets the content of this AttachmentPart object as a Java object. The type of the returned Java object depends on (1) the DataContentHandler object that is used to interpret the bytes and (2) the Content-Type given in the header.
> For the MIME content types "text/plain", "text/html" and "text/xml", the DataContentHandler object does the conversions to and from the Java types corresponding to the MIME types. For other MIME types,the DataContentHandler object can return an InputStream object that contains the content data as raw bytes.
> A SAAJ-compliant implementation must, as a minimum, return a java.lang.String object corresponding to any content stream with a Content-Type value of text/plain, a javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource object corresponding to a content stream with a Content-Type value of text/xml, a java.awt.Image object corresponding to a content stream with a Content-Type value of image/gif or image/jpeg. For those content types that an installed DataContentHandler object does not understand, the DataContentHandler object is required to return a java.io.InputStream object with the raw bytes. 
> But in cxf 2.6.2, when MIME content type is "text/xml", the return type of AttachmentPart.getContent() is java.io.ByteArrayInputStream, which doesn't comply with the java doc.
