Well, you can write services using the Provider interface that send/receive SOAPMessage objects.
http://cwiki.apache.org/CXF20DOC/provider-services.html Then, you could call getSOAPBody() on the soap message to get a SOAPBody object, which implements org.w3c.dom.Node: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.5/api/javax/xml/soap/SOAPBody.html Next you can create a DOMSource from the SOAPBody: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.5/api/javax/xml/transform/dom/DOMSource.html Finally you can use an XMLInputFactory to create an XMLStreamReader from the DOMSource: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.5/api/javax/xml/stream/XMLInputFactory.html#createXMLStreamReader(javax.xml.transform.Source) A bit long winded, but as far as I know that's the simplest way to get an XMLStreamReader. Unfortunately, this does mean that the whole message has to get loaded into a DOM tree in order to be operated on, rather than just streaming the data in from the web server on demand. Shouldn't be a problem for small messages but is a shame for large amounts of data. Does anybody know a way around this, so you can get an XMLStreamReader directly without going via DOM?
