Ok, i got past the NullPointerException. Its seems like i was missing the
keyword type in the
<handler name="Simple" type="java:mf.ors.client.SimpleHandler"/>
After fixing that i get the following error:-
AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException
faultSubcode:

I defined a simple Handler class and tried to set up the handler in the
client-config.wsdd file.
I am using the following client-config.wsdd file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/";
xmlns:java="http://xml.apac
he.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">
<handler name="Simple" type="mf.ors.client.SimpleHandler"/>
<!--globalConfiguration>
<requestFlow> <handler type="Simple"/> </requestFlow>
</globalConfiguration-->
<service name="NameService">
<requestFlow> <handler type="Simple"/> </requestFlow>
</service>
<transport name="http"
pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.http.HTTPSender"/>
<transport name="java"
pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.java.JavaSender"/>
<transport name="local"
pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.local.LocalSender"/>
</deployment>
When i try to execute the SOAP client i get the following exception :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.axis.client.Stub.extractAttachments(Stub.java:331)

com.micros.webservices.og._4_2.Name_wsdl.NameServiceSoapStub.newProfile(NameServiceSoa

at mf.ors.client.ORSClient.main(ORSClient.java:59)
Any clues?
You can setup client side handlers in client-config.wsdd. Just place it
on your clients classpath.
