No, there's nothing sacred about generated code.ideally you're only supposed to implement the Skeleton class, but if you need to do things with the SOAP message itself, you'll have to do it in the Stub.

But is there a way to extract the SOAP header without modifying the generated stub? My understanding was the stubs are not supposed to be modified? I was hoping to extract the header by using the generated stub methods. I suppose this will only be exposed if the soap-headers are explicitly declared in the WSDL (which they are not in my case). -Hoy On 12/1/06, Brennan Spies <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Assuming you are talking about the return envelope (from the service), you should see something like org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext _returnMessageContext = _operationClient .getMessageContext(org.apache.axis2.wsdl.WSDLConstants.

You can use a _returnEnv.getHeader() call to access the header. _____ From: hoy hoy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 2:40 PM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: how to get soap header from stub in axis2 I know how to add headers, via: stub._getServiceClient().addStringHeader(...) however, after the call is made; stub.MyMethodToInvoke(...) I want to view the soap headers that are returned. Using ethereal (network sniffer) I can see the headers, but they are not exposed on the stub class. There are no, stub.getHeader(...) methods that I can use, unless I need to do something fancier? How do I get the SOAPEnvelope from a Stub? Eseentially, the stub is all I'm working with or do I need to look elsewhere? Thanks so much for your help Brennan!

The ServiceClient (class member in the Stub) also has helper methods for adding SOAP headers. _____ From: hoy hoy [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2006 1:55 PM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: how to get soap header from stub in axis2 Hi all, I'm using Axis 2 1.1 and have a stub that was generated from a WSDL. The soap call that I'm making returns SOAP headers, namely session information. How can I retrieve those SOAP headers from my stub? What methods or helper classes do I need to use? Thanks, Hoy
