JS> Hi, I'd like to use Axis and SOAP over HTTP for aynchronous JS> messaging.

The reason for this is, that I've written handlers that JS> add instrumentation data to each request and have to match JS> request/response in them as well (in asynchronous messages). But JS> if Axis already supports this, I won't have to implement it... For now you have to implement it yourself. One way is to use correlation mechanism of the underlying transport (for example we used correlation IDs of JMS messages to match request and response). Another way is to use specification like WS-Addressing and transfer correlation ID in message header. Regards, Egor Pervuninski
