[Axis2] Customizing Pre-Defined Phases

[Wan Luo]

Hi,

I am trying to integrate Axis with an existing webapp. What I am planning to do is remove the AxisServlet and wrapping the AxisEngine in my own servlet. My servlet detects the web service the user is trying to hit from the URL, so I have no need for dispatch to find the service, as I can handle it in my own servlet.

In short, I really only need to process the SOAP message and extract the parameters.

The Architecture guide says that "there is a special case of using the two way transport where the first four phases in the In-Phase most likely to do nothing." 

Another option I was considering is overwriting the dispatch handler by using a custom handler, but I have not seen any documentation on how to override behaviour in the pre-defined phases.  Any input is appreciated.
