\007 in string causes client exception

           Summary: \007 in string causes client exception
           Product: Axis
           Version: 1.1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Serialization/Deserialization
        AssignedTo: axis-dev@ws.apache.org
        ReportedBy: herold@cotagesoft.com


With a simple web service such as:

import java.rmi.RemoteException;
class BellTest{
  public String bell() throws RemoteException {
    return "\007";
  }
}

Axis does not encode the \007 in the returned string, resulting in a byte 0x07 
in the transmitted SOAP response.  0x07 is not an valid XML character.  
However \007 is a perfectly valid character in a Java string.

If you generate wsdl, then generate client stub, and call this service using 
the stub, the client will get an XML parser exception when deserialzing the 
returned string.  I will attach a stack trace, albeit from my test program 
with different names/line numbers
