You would need to write your handler with thread safety in mind unless your web service scope is set to "request", in which case a new handler instance would be created per request. Down side is of course everything has to be recreated which is costly. BTW if this is for a JAX-WS style web service you can access the headers in the service without the need of a handler.

Date: Thu, 22 May 2008 10:32:06 -0400 To: [email protected] Thank you for the reply. I think I would still have a problem using a handler that stored a context because I would then need to access this context from inside the service interface. This works fine if you are only receiving one request at a time but when you start having concurrent requests you are left with a situation where you have no way to know from the service interface implementation which context you are supposed to pull information out of. You are left with the same problem which is not having a way to pass any additional information through your generated service interfaces. Please correct me if my thinking is incorrect. I am really trying to find a solution to this problem.

If you want to access the headers the way to do that would be through a handler. You would then need to store the information that you need in an object (normally a context) that would be accessible to your application.
