Hi all!
I've got a XML message containing x'ef bb bf' as a BOM. This message can be opened with a variety of XML-parser. (I've tried IE and XML-spy). I lift this message with RFHUTIL and put it to a queue feeding a messageflow that lifts the message via an Input node configured with the XML domain. When I try to trace it, I get an error, 5004 (An error has been reported by the BIPXML4C component). RFHUTIL will produce MQMD.CodedCharSetId = 437 (not utf- . Changing it (in RFHUTIL) to 1208 (utf- does not help (the trace confirms that CCSID has been changed to 1208).
Now, if I use an hex-editor to delete the BOM, the message is parsed and traced as expected.
I try to pinpoint if this is an error in the message, a bug in the parser, some inconsitency between headers and pay-load, etc.
Any help/hints greatly appreciated.
TIA

Given that the BOM is not handled by the XML parser.
And if it has to be in your data. Although is not required as the data is UTF-8 and also given that you are using the MQ transport it's encoding is known.
Then you can input your message in the BLOB domain.
Remove the 3 bytes of the BOM using ESQL.
Then reparse the message in the XML domain.
This will mitigate the problem you described. |

Zanda,
thanks, I've got the same suggestion from other sources as well, so it definitely seems the way to go!
