I am trying to read the names and values of various parts of an inbound message in a Java node, but I am not getting what I expect. In this case the message inbound is actually a SOAP Fault but that probably doesn't matter. Anyway this is what is happening :-

inbound message :

<soap:Fault xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<faultcode>soap:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring>something bad happened</faultstring>
<faultactor>urn:someEndpoint</faultactor>
<detail>
<NUError xmlns="urn:aviva:nu:dis:schema:entities:common:nuerror:v01">
<ErrorID>99999</ErrorID>
<ErrorType>UNEXPECTED</ErrorType>
<ErrorDescription>Boooom</ErrorDescription>
<TimeStamp>2008-04-24T15:28:51Z</TimeStamp>
</NUError>
</detail>
</soap:Fault>

in Java node :-

public int run(MbMessageAssembly ma) throws MbException {
...
MbElement xmlnscRoot;
MbElement soapFaultRoot;
MbMessage msg = null;

...
msg.getRootElement().createElementAsLastChildFromBitstream(msgBytes, MbXMLNSC.PARSER_NAME, null, null, null, 0, 1208, 0);

MbMessageAssembly newAssembly = new MbMessageAssembly(ma, msg);

msg.finalizeMessage(MbMessage.FINALIZE_VALIDATE);

// get the parser domain (XMLNSC)
xmlnscRoot = newAssembly.getMessage().getRootElement().getLastChild();

// get the name of the root node (should be Fault)
soapFaultRoot = xmlnscRoot.getFirstChild();

String rootNodeName = soapFaultRoot.getName();
String rootNodeNamespace = soapFaultRoot.getNamespace();

// Everything OK so far : rootNodeName = 'Fault' and rootNodeName contains the SOAP 1.1 namespaceURI

// IF I TRY TO HAVE A LOOK AT THE FIRST CHILD THINGS GO AWRY ??

String soapFaultRootChildName;
soapFaultRootChildName = soapFaultRoot.getFirstChild().getName();

At this point soapFaultRootChildName contains the value 'soap', that is the prefix of the Fault element ??

I can use an evaluateXPath method to get to the child nodes of Fault (faultcode, faultstring, etc..) so why can't I do it with getFirstChild or any of the other methods ???

Thanks
