    How can I propagate handler extracted headers?

      Hi!

      this is kind of a newbie question; I have a jaxrpc handler that reads some soap-header and now want to propagate this value (a sessionid) to outgoing requests from my endpoint ejb by creating an outgoing handler that sets the header accordingly.. ie:


      client request
       |
       (handler) ----- save sessionid
       |
       endpoint ejb
       |
       (request)
       |
       (handler) ----- reinsert sessionid
       |
      outgoing request
       |
      (process result in endpoint ejb and return to originating client)
      


      In this example the endpoint ejb is unaware of (and thus not involved in) the propagation..

      so I wonder how I can make the sessionid value available to my outgoing handler.. is these some kind of "transaction context" I can use? Or a security context? Or can save it in a static Map using the thread as a key (sounds dirty)?

      thanks for any help!
