Description

I've a NullPointerException when I set a SOAP header by using an XmlObject:

final XmlObject userDetails = getDetails();
final QName name = EndUserDetailsDocumentXML.type.getDocumentElementName();
final Header userDetailsHeader = new Header(name, userDetails, new XmlBeansDataBinding());
userDetailsHeader.setDirection(Header.Direction.DIRECTION_OUT);
message.getHeaders().add(userDetailsHeader);

The problem is that the XmlBeans implementation is guessing that the type class of the message part is not null (part.getTypeClass()). But it's always null, see the class org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.interceptor.SoapOutInterceptor:

if (b != null) {
MessagePartInfo part = new MessagePartInfo(header.getName(), null);
part.setConcreteName(header.getName());
b.createWriter(XMLStreamWriter.class)
.write(header.getObject(), part, writer);

Later in org.apache.cxf.xmlbeans.DataWriterImpl (line 71):

public void write(Object obj, MessagePartInfo part, XMLStreamWriter output) {
try {
Class<?> typeClass = part.getTypeClass();
if (!XmlObject.class.isAssignableFrom(typeClass)) {
