Background:
Java: 1.5 Tomcat 5.25 Mod_JK Connector Apache web server Axis 2 IDE: Intellij 7.x We have non-standard web layout, I am using the init-params and params in the axis.xml to explicitly set up the contexts and other entry points. I have some experience with Axis back in 2001/2 at Swingtide when we were building a SOAP inference engine, handlers building SOAP endpoints,etc. I have the axis kernel sources setup in my IDE so I can step through and learn more.... Goal(s): We are using, or more correctly put, going to be using, axis2 in a legacy web environment. (I.e. We are using Axis2 in an embedded mode). I/we are going to be using Document Style SOAP to integrate with other distributed applications. I like the ability to programmatically introduce new services but I do not see an easy way, or a pattern for accessing the ConfigurationContext. In stepping through the code it is obvious that it is fairly expensive operation to create one. Even if were not expensive I would like, in a singleton way to access the Configuration Context, as created by the AxisServlet and install new Java services as they come to fruition. public static void install() { try { ConfigurationContext context = ConfigurationContextFactory.createConfigurationContextFromFileSystem( "<OurPath>\\conf", null ); HashMap services = context.getAxisConfiguration().getServices(); if ( ! services.containsKey( BuildingController.class.getName() )) { AxisService service = AxisService.createService( BuildingController.class.getName(), context.getAxisConfiguration() ); context.getAxisConfiguration().addService( service ); } } catch ( Exception e ) { Trace.error("Problem adding service: " + e.getMessage(), e ); } Problem: I am encountering the below exception which I am getting ready to debug. But I was hoping to access same configuration context, unless this is not an accepted usage, or is is not thread-safe, or...
