OK, forgive my stupidity, but I am trying to send an attachment back from the server. I did say that I was trying to send the attachment back in the response in my original message but, I probably should have been clearer. That would also explain why I was confused about your orginal response.
Anyway, I have attempted to model my service after the attachments example included in the Axis distribution. On the server side, I get null for the message context (which seems impossible to me). Any ideas? Thanks. Tony >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/01/04 07:45AM >>> oService is your Service or your locator (both are Service or extend Service!) --> read my text and think about! ;) Forget the MessageContext - you can t make MessageContext context = MessageContext.get.... if you use the stub and the skeleton! I get also null from MessageContext -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tony Thompson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 1.

Is it possible that my service is not deployed correctly and that is why the current message context is null? Thanks. Tony >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/01/04 02:37AM >>> You can handle your attachment like this - without using the MessageContext Object[] attachments = soapService.getAttachments(); AttachmentPart attachPart = (AttachmentPart) attachments[0]; AttachmentPart attachPart1 = (AttachmentPart) attachments[1]; DataHandler arrow = attachPart.getDataHandler(); DataHandler folder = attachPart1.getDataHandler(); File myFile1 = new File("C:\\temp\\" + attachPart.getContentId() + ".gif"); FileOutputStream myFOS1 = new FileOutputStream(myFile1); arrow.writeTo(myFOS1); .... Another solution can be - take your Service or Locator (also Service) and get the AxisEngine --> then make engine.getCurrentMessageContext()!? AxisEngine engine = oService.getEngine(); engine.getCurrentMessageContext(); Thomas -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tony Thompson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 31.

Can anyone explain why that might happen and how I can fix it? I am trying to add a DIME attachment to a response and it is hard to do without a MessageContext. Thanks. Tony
