Hi,
I am just about going to check in what Sebastien is suggesting here. So you
could define a PolicySet as follows : -
<sca:policySet name="tuscany:Axis2ConnectionsConfPolicySet"
provides=""
appliesTo="sca:binding.ws"
tuscany:alwaysAppliesTo="sca:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'SomeName']"
>
<ConnectionsConf>
<NoOfConnections> 100 </NoOfConnections>
<TimeOut>300000</TimeOut>
</ConnectionsConf>
</sca:policySet>
Where the only thing you might have to define is that structure
<ConnetionsConf> and the xml processing for it. Then you need to write your
handler for this policyset and register it in the binding module's
META-INF/services. Thats it.
