Enabling cookies in a JBossWS web service client

[cbalaves]

I am consuming a web service that requires that cookies be enabled (the web service requires a login before further requests are sent, and the credentials are sent back to the caller in a cookie).

How can one enable cookies in a JBossWS web service client?

Service service = Service.create(wsdlURL, serviceQName);
YourInterface proxy = (YourInterface)service.getPort(YourInterface.class);
// the following call enables cookies
((BindingProvider)proxy)
 .getRequestContext()
 .put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY, true);

proxy.callYourMethod()

You must use JBossWS 2.0.1 or higher, because of the following bug in previous releases:
