Hi Sagara, When you say "You can make operation name part of the EPR ", you mean I can do the following?
Say I have an service endpoint: http://host:port/xyz24/webservices1.5?soap=Map24Geocoder51&wsdl_version=2.0 And I have an operation: RetrieveAddress I can construct a new endpoint: http://host:port/xyz24/webservices1.5?soap=Map24Geocoder51&wsdl_version=2.0/RetrieveAddress I have two questions on this: (1) Operation can have a namespace, how to pass that namespace info? I am asking this because I have a web service server that depends on the operation name and the operation namespace to dispatch the web services. Their WSDL does not define a soap action. Still, my basic question is: Is there a way in AXIS2/java that we can pass the operation info (name/namespace) in the web service client call. (2) The query string is in the middle of the endpoint URL now, will this cause problem? Thanks!

In fact soapAction is mandatory in SOAP 1.1 but replaced in SOAP 1.2 using a optional "action". So your client can send one of above input data according to underline dispatching approach. You can make operation name part of the EPR as follows. ServiceClient sender = new ServiceClient(); Options options = new Options(); options.setTo(new EndpointReference("http://host/MyService/MyOperation";)); sender.setOptions(options); [1] - http://wso2.org/library/176 Thanks !
