Axiom: Get the content length for a streaming inbound message
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WSCOMMONS-330
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-330
             Project: WS-Commons
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: AXIOM
            Reporter: Rich Scheuerle
            Assignee: Rich Scheuerle


Background:
I have a user that wants to log the length of the inbound message.  
Unfortunately this information is not available if the inbound message is 
chunked.

Solution:
I am designing a new "input stream filter" to Axiom called 
DetachableInputStream.  

The DetachableInputStream has two new methods:
   a) length() which returns the accumulated length of the stream.
   b) detach() which consumes and buffers the original input stream (detaching 
from the original input stream allows its resources to be freed/reused).

The Attachments object will wrap the incoming stream with a 
DetachableInputStream.  Users can query the Attachments object to get the 
content length.

This is a simple solution that can be useful in other situations.
