Hi Sander,
Try this java mapping it shoudl work
PS: I am hoping that you are in PI7.1 .. you need to import com.sap.xpi.ib.mapping.lib.jar file
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.Reader;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.AbstractTransformation;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformationException;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.TransformationInput;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.TransformationOutput;

public class GetContent extends AbstractTransformation {
     public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out)
             throws StreamTransformationException {
            // Add your code here
            String inData = convertStreamToString(in);
             String outData = inData.replaceFirst("encoding=\"UTF-8\"","");
            try
            //The JAVA mapping output payload is returned using the TransformationOutput class
            // arg1.getOutputPayload().getOutputStream()
                 out.write(outData.getBytes("UTF-8"));
            catch(Exception exception1) { }
      //Un comment to test the mapping as a standalone code
     /*public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
           //InputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Suraj\\eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR2-win32\\Workspace\\JavaMapping\\in.txt"));
          InputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Suraj\\eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR2-win32\\Workspace\\JavaMapping\\test.xml"));
           OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("out.xml"));
          GetContent myMapping = new GetContent();
           myMapping.execute(in, out);
        } catch (Exception e) {
           e.printStackTrace();
      public void transform(TransformationInput arg0, TransformationOutput arg1) throws StreamTransformationException {
     getTrace().addInfo("JAVA Mapping Called");
     this.execute(arg0.getInputPayload().getInputStream(),
                          arg1.getOutputPayload().getOutputStream());     
      public String convertStreamToString(InputStream in){
     StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
     try
     InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(in);
     Reader reader =
     new BufferedReader(isr);
     int ch;
     while((ch = in.read()) > -1) {
          sb.append((char)ch);}
          reader.close();
     catch(Exception exception) { }
     return sb.toString();
