Note that Axis supports two types of interceptors -- javax.xml.rpc.handler.Handler and org.apache.axis.Handler. The Axis handler offers a richer interface that has been customized to work with Axis. Handlers written using the Axis handler class aren't portable to other JAX-RPC implementations. The JAX-RPC handler is a pretty low-level "back-door" style of interceptor. It's harder to work with, but JAX-RPC handlers can work with any JAX-RPC implementation.
