             Summary: Coping Request SOAP Headers to Fault response
                 Key: CXF-4289
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4289
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andrei Shakirin
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: JAXWSMethodInvoker.patch

Hi,

Actually JAXWSMethodInvoker and AbstractJAXWSMethodInvoker contain code to copy 
request soap headers (except security one) to SOAP Fault: 
AbstractJAXWSMethodInvoker.updateHeader().

I see some use cases when it is not really desired:

1) Request SOAP headers contains some labelling information about request 
elements and they make sense only with request
2) Request SOAP headers extending request elements with meta-information

If request headers are copied into fault response, they can be invalid in 
response context and cause undesired effects:

a) it makes response processing on the client side more difficult, especially 
if processing interceptor is called before incoming fault message is recognized 
and placed into exchange.getInFaultMessage()
b) response fault message has larger size

Proposal is to define context property that give user the possibility to 
switch-off coping request headers into fault response.
Patch is attached.

Regards,
Andrei.
