Hello all,
I have a quick question. I have a service implementation that needs access to the HttpSession to complete it's business functions. (Not the best design you see, business logic tied to the web tier, but it was all done before I got here) :) So, somehow I need the session to get into the service implementation. I know that one way to accomplish this is to inside the service implementation, get the MessageContext and pull the request/session from there. The only (small) qualm i have with that is that it ties my implementation to Axis.
What i want to do is (and don't know if it's possible) is have a request handler "inject" the session into the service impl by calling its setHttpSession method. Is this possible? I have looked all around the MessageContext object (in the source and at runtime) but I don't see an instance of the service implementation class that i can manipulate. I can get the Class object, but not an instance itself. Is the implementation not instantiated until later down the processing line?
Thanks soo much for your help. This is my first stint into web services, and it is quite exciting. Thanks for all your hard work.
cheers, eric
