You can pass information in the MessageContext itself using

the MessageContext.setProperty(String, Object) in the handler and then
using
the MessageContext.getProperty(String) in the Service or Client.

// Example Handler Code
    public void invoke(MessageContext msgContext) throws AxisFault
    {
            System.out.println("Inside Handler");
            msgContext.setProperty("SomeReference", "Some Text if String");
// Could be any object not just string
    }

// Example Service Code

      MessageContext ctx = MessageContext.getCurrentContext();
      String SomeReference = (String) ctx.getProperty("SomeReference");

      System.out.println("SomeReference = " + SomeReference);  // You
should get 'Some Text if String'


I've only tested this server side, but it should work client side as well.

as far as I know there is no way for a handler to talk to a WS
directly. but you can get the message inside your WS implementation:

in your WS you can get the soap message using
org.apache.axis.MessageContext.getCurrentContext() which gives you an
object of type MessageContext. that you can use just like in your
handlers, so just retrieve any info fram the message you want.

hope I could be of help.
