Migrating from JBoss 5.1 to 6.0: JAX-WS: Handler scoped message context property

z.szalay May 30, 2011 9:13 AM

Hi, All

I have a web service with a logical message handler in front.

And here is what I do:

1. In my handler I set a HANDLER scoped custom property using the LogicalMessageContext.put() and LogicalMessageContext.setScope() methods - before the web service method is called by the web service runtime.

2. The web service method throws a business exception.

3. In the handleFault() method of my handler I try to retrieve the value of my custom property using LogicalMessageContext.get() method but it returns null.

I would expect that LogicalMessageContext.get() returns the value what I've set.

I'm not sure if I've found a bug or my expectations are wrong (not according to the JAX-WS spec).

The same code was working in JBoss 5.1.0 GA.

Can somebody shed some light on this issue?

Thanks,

Zoltan
