Hello!

It is possible to use WS-policy and WS-SecurityPolicy in the WSDL of the
webservice. But can Ramaprt read out the security-policy out of the WSDL or
must it be in a separte file like policy.xml? I use Axis2 1.1 and Rampart 1.1. Would be nice if you could answer me this question.

Yes you can use WS-Policy and WS-Security Policy in the WSDL directly. However
there are some other Rampart specific policies that you need to feed in 
addition.

For instance if a WS-Security Policy requires to sign an outgoing message, you 
need
to specify some Rampart specific policies that would specify the keystore, 
aliase of
the key etc. which are required by Rampart engine to enforce such policies.
Rampart doesn't read Policies directly out of a WSDL. It will pick them from the
Description or the Context hierarchy. From the user prospective when you codegen against a WS-Security Policy annotated WSDL, those policies will get embedded into the stub. In such scenarios you only have to feed Rampart specific Policies to the stub. Then Rampart will compute its configuration based on both policies.
