public void invoke(MessageContext msgContext) throws AxisFault
    {
        handleRequest(msgContext);
        super.invoke(msgContext);
    }


    public boolean handleResponse(MessageContext msgContext)
    {
        try
        {
            Message message = msgContext.getRequestMessage();
            SOAPEnvelope requestEnvelope = message.getSOAPEnvelope();
            SOAPHeaderElement headerElement = 
requestEnvelope.getHeaderByName("http://domain","TokenHeader");

            if (headerElement != null)
            {
                String headerElementValue = 
(String)headerElement.getValue();

                // make sure the headerElementValue is valid
                validateTokenValue(headerElementValue);
            }
            else
            {
                // something's gone wrong

                // no header TokenHeader found, therefore we need to create 
a header element and return to client

                // get userName and password
                // pass to db to validate

                //SOAPHeaderElement responseHeaderElement = new 
SOAPHeaderElement("http://domain","TokenHeader");
                //responseHeaderElement.setObjectValue(sTokenValue);
            }
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(e);
        }

        return true;
    }


    public boolean handleRequest(MessageContext msgContext)
    {
        try
        {
            //SOAPEnvelope responseEnvelope = 
msgContext.getResponseMessage().getSOAPEnvelope();
            Message message = msgContext.getResponseMessage();
            SOAPEnvelope responseEnvelope = message.getSOAPEnvelope();

        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(e);
        }

        return true;
