Thanks in advance.
When looking at the headers, for any header where the QName doesn't match a "known" header, and there is NOT a mustUnderstand=1 attribute, the header is parsed into a DOM and passed along to the endpoint in the context. Basically, CXF doesn't know what to do with it, but that's OK since it's not a must understand header. In the two tests that are failing, the QName results in it not matching a known name. Thus, it's pretty much ignored and passed along. -- Daniel Kulp [email protected] http://dankulp.com/blog Talend - http://www.talend.com
