I'm calling a web service (SOAP), and the results are returned as base64Binary.

The results are actually an XML document (this is being encoded by the web service and returned as a base64Binary stream).

I want to decode the base64Binary data back into an XML document so I can process it.

I've tried using the oxf:xml-converter, but with no joy.

For example:
==========
    <p:processor name="oxf:xml-converter">
        <p:input name="config">
            <config>
                <content-type>application/xml</content-type>
                <encoding>utf-8</encoding>
                <version>1.0</version>
            </config>
        </p:input>
        <p:input name="data">
            <document xsi:type="xs:base64Binary">PGRhdGE+ZXhhbXBsZTwvZGF0YT4=</document>
        </p:input>
        <p:output name="data" ref="data"/>
    </p:processor>
==========

In this case, the decoded data is actually:
<data>example</data>

The results of the above are the whole of the data input, as-is, embedded within <document></document> tags.

I can use the oxf:http-serializer processor to stream the base64 data straight to the browser and view the XML that way; but I can't figure out a way of converting it into an XML output that can be consumed by other processors.
