Ah, well, I did finally find the jaxws:handlers element, which lets me
hook in the JAX-WS handler class. So that's working now. Whew!
Interestingly, it seems to be called *after* the CXF interceptors.
But I guess that's OK.
Next question: Is there any way to insert a handler/interceptor before
the JAXB marshalling/unmarshalling is done?
Thanks,
Aaron
