--------------------------------------

Hi Colm,

sorry for coming back - but im stuck and even google/stackoverflow cant help me 
no more :) Ive been looking through all streaming WS-SecurityPolicy tests and 
used org.apache.wss4j.policy.stax.test.AsymmetricBindingIntegrationTest as the 
starting point for implementing a solution for signing/encrypting SOAP messages 
via a WS-SecurityPolicy (skat-b2b-x509-policy.xml).

A lot of my implementation is taken from the WSS4J test code which seems wrong 
and i probably am missing some more knowledge about WSS but im confused why its 
so difficult to make a simple standalone WSS4J implementation that creates a WS 
header from a WS-SecurityPolicy. Due to deadlines i need to abort my idea of 
using a WS-SecurityPolicy as the configuration for a WS-Header and create a 
hardcoded solution that generates the WS-Header step by step. The backend 
solution i need to integrate with use CXF (with WS-SecurityPolicy).

>From a developer point of view it would be beautifull with a simple quickstart 
>example on how to use WSS4J, using the WSS4J test code was not intuitive to me 
> :) 

> using WSS4j to genrate WS-SecurityPolicy without CXF

> Dear Team WSS4J
> i have a task to sign and encrypt webservices that use a WS-SecurityPolicy 
> (see attachmant) in a SAP environment where sending/receiving SOAP request is 
> not part of the solution, i only need to transform/decorate the SOAP requests 
> with WSS for webservices that use a WS-SecurityPolicy. I would have liked to 
> create a solution that given a WS-SecurityPolicy could use WSS4J to generate 
> the appropriate WSS header and body, but for reasons i dont understand this 
> is only possible using CXF.
> CXF use PolicyOutInterceptor (see 
> [http://cxf.apache.org/using-ws-policy-in-cxf-projects)] to decorate SOAP 
> requests. 
> To me it seems strange that WSS4J has implemented the WS-SecurityPolicy 
> support in another framework (CXF) so i propose that the WS-SecurityPolicy 
> implementation also should be supported by the core WSS4J core :)
