Is automatic module engagement supported?

[Detelin Yordanov <de...@gmail.com>]

Hi guys,
  Does Axis2 currently support automatic module enagement? By examining the
code I found out that the AxisDescription's engageModulesForPolicy
method is called only in applyPolicy(..) which is not explicitly called
anywhere (or at least I could not find it).
Does this mean that to support the automatic module engagement, one needs to
manually call the applyPolicy(..) method on the AxisService?

Regards,

Hi Detelin,
           applyPolicy(..) method is used in code generated stubs. If you
look at the constructor you can see _service.applyPolicy() which recursively
calls the child descriptions. So automatic module engagement works in the
client side as mentioned here [1]. But doesn't see this being used in the
server side.

thanks,
nandana
