Remove xmlns="" from the response structure

Question

Hi all,
This is the response which I get from the Webservice which I'm calling using the SAOP adapter
How can I remove xmlns="" from the sc and sm tags?
Input:
<Response xmlns="urn:com.xyz.xyz/platform" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<error>
  <sc xmlns="">100</sc>
  <sm xmlns="">No Organizations found</sm>
  </error>
  </Response>
Expected Output structure:
<Response xmlns="urn:com.xyz.xyz/platform" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<error>
  <sc>100</sc>
  <sm>No Organizations found</sm>
  </error>
  </Response>
Thanks,
Srini

Hi Srinivas,
Using Java mapping you can remove or add whatever the content to the XML message. Below is the code i am giving. Create a Jar file and upload into XI. This code you can test using SAP NWDS also. Put your XML message in C:\test\in.xml file and run it. you can check the desired output in out.xml.
package com.sap.wrap;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformation;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.AbstractTrace;
import java.util.Map;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
public class truncate_namespace implements StreamTransformation {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
                                                  try {
                                                       InputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File("in.xml"));
                                                       OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("output.xml"));
                                                       truncate_namespace myMapping = new  truncate_namespace();
                                                       myMapping.execute(in, out);
                                                  } catch (Exception e) {
                                                       e.printStackTrace();
               String strXML = new String();
               int index = 0;
               AbstractTrace trace;
               private Map param = null;
               public void setParameter(Map param) {
                    this.param = param;
               public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out) {
                    int strBegin, strEnd;
                    String ns1String = new String();
                    String headerString = new String();
                    String outString = new String();
                    try {
                         //Convert InputStream to String
                         OutputStream temp = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1024);
                         byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
                         for (int read = in.read(buffer); read > 0; read = in.read(buffer))
                              temp.write(buffer, 0, read);
                         strXML = temp.toString();
                         strXML = strXML.replaceAll(" xmlns=\"\">", ">");
                         outString = strXML;
                         out.write(outString.getBytes());
                    } catch (Exception e) {
