Does axis support the ServiceLifecycle and more specifically to my needs, the ServletEndpointContext interface that contains a getUserPrinciple() method? I suppose this would include the javax.xml.rpc.security.auth.username & password properties for the stub. How about the javax.xml.rpc.session.maintain property?
I am looking for a way to their get a userID for each call or save state so I do not have to pass a token back and forth containing user info for a personalized service.
