Broker 6.1.0.2 on Windows.

I'm passing an XML message over MQ to a flow without a final closing tag character '>' to test out some error handling. I've set the Message Domain to XMLNSC on the MQInput node, I've wired my Out terminal to a trace node (which encounters the parsing error by accessing Root), and also wired the Catch terminal to some error handling logic. The offending message and error details get stored away by another flow, and everything looks good (helpful error message, Parsing exception details etc).

The issue I'm seeing is that when I retrieve the details to look at the offending message, I see a valid XML structure. The closing character '>' has mysteriously appeared on the end of the data, which might seem like a nice touch but isn't very helpful here.

In the Debug view - I know, it's not always the most reliable - I can see that immediately after the MQInput node, on the catch wire, I have a seemingly valid XML structure in the variables view, alongside my exception list etc. So that would explain where this mysterious 'XML repair' happened.

I can get around this by blanking out the Message Domain on the MQInput node and adding a ResetContentDescriptor node later in the flow (the error occurs and I get the poison message logged correctly), just wondering if anyone knows why this is happening?

Thanks

Sorry, I don't have an answer for you, but that's interesting behavior you are seeing. I'd be curious to see what the answer to this is.

Just one suggestion, though, instead of blanking out the parser on the MQInput, try setting it to BLOB... or maybe that's what you meant. In our app, we usually start with a BLOB and then use an RCD to set it to the appropriate domain later. That helps us in situations like this where a message is malformed and then we might have the ability to recover from that by tweaking the message.
