In SOAP RPC call, you usually have default tag inside SOAP Body like:
<ns1: methodName xmlns:ns1="urn:..." SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/";>
I understand that one can change part of the tags/prefix through Constants.java, but in my particular case, there are
several depths of nested elements inside the Header and Body, each element has exactly fixed format and tag for it.
I find it is really hard to realize this through changing Constants.java. That's why I use message.send() to control
those customized prefix and tags.
What I wonder is if there are methods in Apache SOAP to let me pass the customized tags and prefix into its Header
and Body. For example, say you have buildHeader(stringHeader), buildBody(stringBody), so that you can pass a
pre-defined Header and Body tags/prefix into the Envelope.
Thanks again,

Hmmm. I still don't quite understand what you need to accomplish. You have emphasized *soap:Envelope*, *soap:Header* and *soap:Body*, which is just a change of namespace prefix from SOAP-ENV to soap. The way you would achieve that is to change Constants.java and make sure its .class file gets loaded instead of the "sanctioned" one from a distribution. Are there other aspects to the request that you do not know how to do with Apache SOAP?

Scott -
What need to be changed are not only prefix, also include SOAP Header, Body, and their
sub-elements. Our customer required a specific format for SOAP Request and Response.
Example of SOAP request like:
<*soap:Envelope* xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";
xmlns:cb="http://mycompany.com/cbody.xsd";
xmlns:ch="http://mycompany.com/cheader.xsd"; xmlns:eb="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/msg-header-2_0.xsd";
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3/org/2001/XMLSchema";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/envelope.xsd
cbody.xsd cheader.xsd status.xsd ticket.xsd response.xsd" >
* <soap:Header> *
<eb:MessageHeader eb:id="ID000001" eb:version="2.0"soap:mustUnderstand = "1">
<eb:From>
<eb:Role>String</eb:Role>
</eb:From>
<eb:To>
<eb:Role>String</eb:Role>
</eb:To>
<eb:CPAId>TBD</eb:CPAId>
<eb:ConversationId>934523405</eb:ConversationId>
<eb:Service>service</eb:Service>
<eb:Action>Application</eb:Action> </eb:MessageHeader>
<ch:cHeader> <ch:version>1.0</ch:version>
<ch:messageType type="xs:string">string</ch:messageType>
</ch:cHeader>
*</soap:Header>*
* <soap:Body>*
<eb:Manifest eb:id="ID000002" eb:version="2.0">
<eb:xlink="http://mycompany.com/link"; />
</eb:Manifest>
<cb:cBody>
<cb:MessageType>
<cb:Name>John</cb:Name>
<cb:Phone>1233456789</cb:Phone>
.....
</cb:MessageType>
</cb:cBody>
*</soap:Body>**
</soap:Envelope> *
So how can I achieve this in SOAP RPC call(call.invoke())? Apache SOAP is pretty much predefine those tags.
All I think now is to use message call to achieve but it can not embed object or attachment, isn't it?
