How do I get the CDATA from a MultiUserChat Message?

[ Note: I posted this on StackOverflow first, but since the question didn’t attract much attention, I thought I might have better luck here. The original question is at: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30671326/how-do-i-get-the-cdata-from-a-smack- xmpp-api-multiuserchat-message ]

Smack’s debugging console messages show me a full message including the message detail in the CDATA I’m looking for:

`11:45:05 AM RECV (0): <
11:45:05 AM RECV (0): message to="me@server.com/Smack" type=“groupchat” from="roomname@conf.server.com/roomname-abc">ABCD issues valid 2015-06-05T15:45:00ZABCD issues valid 2015-06-05T15:45:00Z
<![CDATA[

]]>`

But in my code, when I look at a Message, all the detail has been stripped out from inside the <x></x> element, including some of its attributes:

<message to='me@server.com/Smack' from='roomname@conf.server.com/roomname-abc' type='groupchat'><body>ABCD issues valid 2015-06-05T15:45:00Z</body><html xmlns='[http://jabber.org/protocol/xhtml-im](http://jabber.org/protocol/xhtml-im)'><body xmlns="[http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml](http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml)">ABCD issues valid 2015-06-05T15:45:00Z</body></html> <x xmlns='roomname-abc'></x></message>

What happened to that detail, how did the console see it but I can’t, how can I get the CDATA?

I used a kluge to get things to work. I hope someone has a better answer. I usedReflectionDebuggerFactory.setDebuggerClass(Debugger.class) where Debugger is my debugger that extends AbstractDebugger and overrides log() to capture the String from the logMessage before the CDATA is stripped out of it.
