hi, I have successfully used axis to make SOAP calls from JSP pages to an Axis Application located in the same web context. Since the application requires BASIC authentication I simply striped the Authorization header from the HTTP request to the JSP pages and used that user/password to issue the SOAP request.
Now I need to use the same method of issuing a SOAP call from JSP pages to the Axis application, but I do not want to re-authenticate to the Axis servlet like I was originally doing (sort of how RequestDispatcher.include() works in the J2EE API). I originally tried to use axis' "local" transport to do the job, but I was getting an error that the service could not be found. I then tried to create a custom transport using the RequestDispatcher J2EE object. Is this correct way to go, or was the "local" transport the easier way to go?? Is there any documentation on how to properly write a custom transport? thanks for you help, Christos Karanicolas
