Description

I am trying to create fault message with specific faultCode and faultString, but so far I have had little success.

I am using XML-RPC libs from file xmlrpc-3.0-bin.tar.gz

The method I am using on server is this:

public Map method(Map request) throws XmlRpcException

{ throw new XmlRpcException(301, "My error message"); }

This should generate fault message with faultCode=301 and faultString="My error message".

However, this XML is what server sends over network. Notice that faultCode is 0 and not 301, and faultString has additional text appended before "My error message".

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
