[SoapRMI] xpp potential cleanup/reset problem

[CHEN,SHIH-CHANG (HP-NewJersey,ex2)]

Yes, I got that exception when invoking next(). But I did
invoke setInput() for each request. As I said, I get that 
error very often, but not always. I also try to check the 
eventype before invoking next, but it still happens. Is it
possible ? 

ps. I discovered this problem when I was doing stress/load
test and performance measurement with 10 concurrent 
clients. Server-side is a servlet running in tomcat4.0.4 with
jdk1.4.

thanks,
