A few beginner questions

[Chris Nappin]

Hi,     We have an existing Apache Axis-based application to which we’d like to add security. I’ve been able to successfully implement the UserToken example, but have struggled to get anything further working.   Specifically, for various good architectural reasons we are using DII in our clients. Do you have any good pointers to help me get started using wss4j with Axis in DII mode rather than wsdl2java-generated stubs? We’re struggling to get the Axis engine to use the wss4j handler specified in the client .wsdd config – there seem to be several ways to do this but all are ignored.   Also, the Javadoc in the 1.0 release is missing some vital information, like org.apache.ws.security.handler.WSHandlerConstants. This are seems to have been altered in the latest online Javadocs, based on CVS?   I guess as an alternative we could use wss4j in a much lower-level way, like the devx article suggests. I think this then forces me to use JAXM rather than DII?   cheers, Chris Nappin Technical Architect   ABM United Kingdom Limited Telephone: +44 (0) 115 977 6999 Facsimile: +44 (0) 115 977 6850 Web: http://www.abm-uk.com   ABM for Intelligent Solutions     CONFIDENTIALITY & PRIVILEGE NOTICE This e-mail is confidential to its intended recipient.
