[Soaplite-devel] Where is the SOAP-response encoded to UTF-8?

[Thorsten S. <tsc...@am...>]

Hello,

I have a simple soap server using the pretty old version 0.55 of
SOAP::Lite. The server should send UTF-8 encoded strings, which
doesn't work with this old version. The interesting thing is that my
application logic behind the server does not generate a valid UTF-8
perl string with UTF-8-flag set, but just windows-1252 and leaves the
rest to SOAP::Lite. This is an error, but it works in newer versions
of perl. In the old version even if my application generates a proper
UTF-8-perl-string with flag set the response is not valid UTF-8.

I thought that the new versions of SOAP::Lite are simply just encoding
the response before sending it to the client, but I can't find any
place where this encoding may happen. How does it work that SOAP::Lite
can send proper UTF-8-Strings even with non-UTF-8 input? Is there any
encoding I just didn't find?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Thorsten Schöning
