Interpreting Spaces as against null in String input

Hi Desmond,

ok, here goes (this is for soapUI Pro only):

The extension goes into a file called DemoRequestFilter.groovy in the soapUI Pro\bin\scripts folder:

package soapui.demo 

import com.eviware.soapui.SoapUI 
import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.BaseHttpRequestTransport 
import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.RequestFilter
import com.eviware.soapui.model.iface.Request
import com.eviware.soapui.model.iface.Response
import com.eviware.soapui.model.iface.SubmitContext

public class DemoRequestFilter implements RequestFilter
{ 
 public void afterRequest( SubmitContext context, Response response )
 {} 

 public void filterRequest( SubmitContext context, Request wsdlRequest )
 {  
  String content = (String) context.getProperty( BaseHttpRequestTransport.REQUEST_CONTENT )  
  if( content == null )
   {
    System.err.println( "Missing request content in context, skipping demofilter" )
   }
  else 
   {
   System.out.println( "running demofilter" )
    content = content.replaceAll( "<(.+)>--remove--</(\\1)>", "" )
    context.setProperty( BaseHttpRequestTransport.REQUEST_CONTENT, content )
   }
  }
 }

As you can see the filter removes all elements containing "--remove--".

Put the following into a file called demo-listeners.xml in the bin\listeners folder:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tns:soapui-listeners xmlns:tns="http://eviware.com/soapui/config">

  <tns:listener id="DemoRequestFilter" 
      listenerClass="com.eviware.soapui.support.scripting.listeners.ScriptRequestFilter"
      groovyClass="soapui.demo.DemoRequestFilter" 
      listenerInterface="com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.RequestFilter"/> 
    
</tns:soapui-listeners>

Good Luck!
