Gary,

You can also use the deprecated Inflowsecurity and outflowsecurity parameters. 
That's no problem, and it can also be not engaged globally, but in some 
specific services.

Thanks.

Subject: Rampart 1_0 and 1_1+ in/out handling changes

This is related to my other post about enabling rampart for Inflow or Outflow 
only.
 
- Apparently in rampart 1_0 one could toggle whether rampart should handle 
inflow or outflow by the shear presence of the InflowSecurity and 
OutflowSecurity parameters.
(http://ws.apache.org/axis2/modules/rampart/1_0/security-module.html)
"Since rampart module inserts handlers in the system specific pre-dispatch 
phase, it must be engaged globally. But it is possible to activate rampart 
module for the inflow or the outflow when required by the service or the 
clients."
 
- But in rampart 1_1+ it now uses ramp:RampartConfig and WS-SecurityPolicy.  
And there is no longer a concept of telling rampart to handle inflow or 
outflow.  It will do BOTH by default.
 
My questions.  In order to toggle Inflow/Outflow for rampart...
1) although I'm using rampart 1.4, should I use the old InflowSecurity and 
OutflowSecurity parameters?
2) should I hack the rampart-1_4.mar file module.xml to remove inflow?  
3) why did that choice (inflowSecurity/outflowSecurity) get removed for rampart 
1_1+.  And what is it's comparable option using policy files.
 
Thanks
Gary
