Re: Getting the IP Address of SOAP Clients (works for REST clients but, not for SOAP clients)

[myerscb]

it appears that I spoke to soon.

The jaxrsContext is null.  So when I attempt to get the ip address when
running a REST query i get a null pointer.

What i have figured out is if i switch jaxrsContext to a
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.ext.MessgeContext from a
javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext the rest side start to work.  But, the
SOAP side no longer works (which it does if I use the
javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext.

I am not sure why changing the package of the MessageContext for
jaxrsContext affects the jaxwsContext but it does.

so to be clear i am including the relevant code again with package info.

         @Resource javax.xml.ws.WebServiceContext jaxwsContext;
         @Resource javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext jaxrsContext;

        private String getIpAddress() {
                String ipAddress = " unknown";
                javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request = null;
                
                if (jaxrsContext != null) {
                        request = (HttpServletRequest)
jaxrsContext.get(org.apache.cxf.transport.http.AbstractHTTPDestination.HTTP_REQUEST);
                } else if (jaxwsContext != null) {
                        request = (HttpServletRequest)
jaxwsContext.getMessageContext().get(javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext.SERVLET_REQUEST);
                } else {
                        // TODO can not get ip address
                        // should we through and exception                      
                }
                
                if (request != null){
                        if 
(StringUtils.isNotBlank(request.getHeader("X-Forwarded-For"))) {
                                ipAddress = 
request.getHeader("X-Forwarded-For");
                        } else {
                                ipAddress = request.getRemoteAddr();
                        }
                }       

                // System.out.println("IP ADDRESS: " + ipAddress);
                return ipAddress;
        }

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris
