Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

hi folks. First of all, thank you for contributing to my queries as of now.

Problem statement.
- This happens when i try to unmarshall a webservice response, which is nothing but a simple UTF-8 encoded XML string in an soap envelope.
- 0xae is the register character: ®.
- My next step was to ensure that my code works without this character. So I removed all occurances from my XML. It worked just fine...
- So what do you guys suggest me to get rid of this problem?
- Any suggestion will be treated as valuable resource.
- Is there some kind of encoding setting with jaxb ?

An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xae) was found in the element content of the document.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xae) was found in the element content of the document.
