JAXM soap message parsing

Question

I am getting the following XML back from a .net service:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" 
               xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
               xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"&gt;
    <soap:Body>
        <validateCredentialsResponse 
               xmlns="http://www.paragon.com/positionmonitor/PositionMonitor"&gt;
            <validateCredentialsResult>
                <ResultData xsi:type="ValidateCredentialsResultData">
                    <validated>true</validated>
                    <alreadyLoggedIn>false</alreadyLoggedIn>
                </ResultData>
                <Status>
                    <Condition xmlns="">SUCCESS</Condition>
                    <ErrorCode xmlns="">BO.00000</ErrorCode>
                    <ErrorDesc xmlns="">OK</ErrorDesc>
                </Status>
            </validateCredentialsResult>
        </validateCredentialsResponse>
    </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

...and I'm trying to parse it using JAXM, however the following always evaluates to null:

SOAPEnvelope env = reply.getSOAPPart().getEnvelope();

Can anyone help me out here?

I got nice results using the following code (needs at least Java 1.5):

import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;

public class Jaxm {

  private static List<Element> elements(NodeList nodes) {
    List<Element> result = new ArrayList<Element>(nodes.getLength());
    for (int i = 0; i < nodes.getLength(); i++) {
      Node node = nodes.item(i);
      if (node instanceof Element)
        result.add((Element)node);
    }
    return result;
  }

  private static Element named(Element elem, String name) {
    if (!elem.getNodeName().equals(name))
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("Expected " + name + ", got " + elem.getNodeName());
    return elem;
  }
