Illegal character entity: expansion character (code 0xe

I am using CXF to connect to a SOAP web service. Several times, requesting the server, I get Invalid character: extension character code 0xe .

I found that due to an illegal character in Xml, this exception occurs. I also found a solution for this

  XMLOutputFactory f = new WstxOutputFactory();
  f.setProperty(WstxOutputProperties.P_OUTPUT_INVALID_CHAR_HANDLER,
    new InvalidCharHandler.ReplacingHandler(' '));
  XMLStreamWriter sw = f.createXMLStreamWriter(...);

But I do not know how to apply this in CXF. Can someone tell me where I should use this code in CXF. Thanks for the tips.

You can use the incoming interceptor on the server and / or the outgoing client and clear the xml before the decoupling occurs.

|(PRE/USER/POST)_STREAM   | Stream level processing/transformations          |
|READ |                   | This is where header reading typically occurs    |
|(PRE/USER/POST)_PROTOCOL | Protocol processing, such as JAX-WS SOAP handlers|
|UNMARSHAL                | Unmarshalling of the request                     |
|(PRE/USER/POST)_LOGICAL  | Processing of the umarshalled request            |
|PRE_INVOKE               | Pre invocation actions                           |
|INVOKE                   | Invocation of the service                        |
|POST_INVOKE              | Invocation of the outgoing chain if there is one |
