Description

Currently Axis Java clients crash reading soap fault generated by Axis C++ servers. This is because Axis Java assumes the <detail> element has sub elements, while Axis C++ generated <detail> elements just have text.
Please refer to http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-1836 for details (no pun intended).

A very simple fix for this is to add some code in SoapFault.cpp to simply wrap the detail text in another element like so:

in int SoapFault::serialize(SoapSerializer& pSZ, SOAP_VERSION eSoapVersion):

if(m_pFaultDetail)
{
pSZ.serialize("<detail><appSpecific>", NULL);
m_pFaultDetail->serialize(pSZ);
pSZ.serialize("</appSpecific></detail>\n", NULL);
}

(in two places)
