             Summary: Rampart has no support for handling 'actor' attribute in 
the Security header
                 Key: RAMPART-426
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAMPART-426
             Project: Rampart
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: rampart-core
    Affects Versions: 1.6.2
            Reporter: Boris Dushanov


According to the WS-Security specification:

"The <wsse:Security> header block provides a mechanism for attaching 
security-related information targeted at a specific recipient in the form of a 
SOAP actor/role."

<wsse:Security S11:actor="..." S11:mustUnderstand="..."/>

Currently, Rampart is far from full support for actor/role.
 - RampartEngine has a bare support, taking the 'actor' attribute from a random 
Security header.In addition, in SOAP 1.2, the 'actor' attribute is renamed to 
'role', which is not handled by the RampartEngine.
 - Rampart message builders has no support for actor/role. 
 - Rampart configuration has no support for actor/role also

WSS4J has support for actor/role and such could easily be added in 
Rampart.Proper configuration should be added and actor/role values should be 
propagated to WSS4J.
