Design question about message handlers

[balteo]

Hello,

I have a WS client (i.e. a servlet) and a corresponding message handler. I simply want to retrieve IN the WS client a variable FROM the handler. Please let me know how to do that.

Here is a snippet from the handler:

public boolean handleResponse(MessageContext context) {
 try{
 SOAPMessageContext smc = (SOAPMessageContext) context;

 SOAPMessage msg = smc.getMessage();
 Iterator it = msg.getAttachments();

 while(it.hasNext()){
 AttachmentPart ap = (AttachmentPart) it.next();
 DataHandler dh = ap.getDataHandler();

 smc.setProperty("prop", dh);//HERE IS MY PROPERTY/VARIABLE
 }
 } catch(Exception e){
 e.printStackTrace();
 }

 return true;
 }

What I want to achieve specifically is retrieving in my servlet an attachment that is available in my handler.

Any help immensely welcome.

Julien.
