Avoid escaped < and > in xml response

66 views and no one has an answer to this?

Here is another example of a response I'm getting with soapUI from a WS called GetDataBases.

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<GetDataBasesResponse xmlns="http://www.mycompany.com/">
<GetDataBasesResult>&lt;a>&lt;db name="Demo" nameex="[Demo]">&lt;/db>&lt;/a></GetDataBasesResult>
</GetDataBasesResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

turn off "pretty print response messages" in Preferences/WSDL settings. hope this helps for you

Unluckily not leskop, it haven't helped (sorry for not leting you now before but I was on holidays).

The output with "Pretty Print" on is:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soapenv:Body>
<ns:GetDatabasesResponse xmlns:ns="http://services.protonws.quiterian.com">
<ns:return>&lt;a>&lt;db name="Demo" nameex="[Demo]"/>&lt;/a></ns:return>
</ns:GetDatabasesResponse>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

and with "Pretty Print" off is:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soapenv:Body><ns:GetDatabasesResponse xmlns:ns="http://services.protonws.quiterian.com"><ns:return>&lt;a>&lt;db name="Demo" nameex="[Demo]"/>&lt;/a></ns:return></ns:GetDatabasesResponse></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>

as you see the characters < are still escaped to &lt; (and the same may occur with > its random)

Any other suggestion?

Thanks for your help!
