If you are able to change the WSDL contract, then you can indeed include
the
username and password in the SOAP body. Just put them in a message part,
like
any other parameter.
If you want to put username and password in the SOAP header, then you can
use
the UsernameToken mode of WSS4J to be compatible with the WS-Security
standard; or you can invent your own header if you don't have to be
standard
or interoperable. Using WSS4J is probably better.
