Description

There's idiomatic XSLT copy transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

    <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
        <xsl:copy>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
        </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Using current org.apache.cxf.staxutils.StaxSource for such transformation applied on this input document:

<root xmlns="urn:org.apache.cxf:test">Text</root>

produces the following result with Xalan 2.7.1:

< xmlns="urn:org.apache.cxf:test">Text</>

After getting rid of the hack commented with:

        // Adding namespace declaration as attributes is necessary because
        // the xalan implementation that ships with SUN JDK 1.4 is bugged
        // and does not handle the startPrefixMapping method

And using correct order of events:

1. start prefix mapping
2. start element
3. end element
4. end prefix mapping

The result was correct on both:

• Xalan 2.7.1
• JDK 1.6.0_04 (and laters)

JDK 1.6.0_04 is the first JDK that ships with JAX-WS 2.1 which seem to be required by CXF.
