[Axis2] Multiple byte character set support?

How are multibyte character sets handled in Axis2C?

If I encode all my strings in UTF-8 before sending from the server and
decode from UTF-8 when receiving strings on the server, will that work?

Thanks,

-Dave.

Re: [Axis2] Rampart callback module security

Hi,
The callback mechanism is implemented for users to specify their own 
ways to manage passwords.
Samples in rampart callbacks are just to provide a guide for users to 
write their own callback modules.
You may use a different validation before returning the password. 
Something like validation before extracting the password from a 
database.  These are beyond the scope of rampart. But I'll try to figure 
out a way to overcome your problem. May be to improve the callback 
sample a bit :). And your comments on these are more than welcome
Cheers,
Kaushalye

[Axis2] Rampart callback module security

Posted by Dave Meier <DM...@SERENA.com>.
Hi,

With the callback module that returns the password, is there a good way
to configure
the apache server to lock this module down so nobody else can call it?

I'm concerned about it being a security hole.

Thanks,

-Dave.

Hi Samisa,

Good news!  I tested the wide character support in Axis2C and it worked
on the first try.

I inserted several Japanese characters into a string in two separate
tests, one where the
wide character string originates on the server and one where it
originates on the client.
For the client test I pass it to the server and then back.

Tested with the axis2_http_server.exe and also tested with Apache2 using
SSL.  All succeeded.

Thanks,

-Dave.

As far as my understanding goes, yes. But I have not tried this on my
own. If you could try and report problems, may be I can help fix.
