How to sign SOAP Envelop??

[Shyam Shukla <sh...@persistent.co.in>]

Hi

 

I have written following method to sign SOAP Envelop but it generates error
"java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeader" at run
time although it is compiled successfully.

I am using jdk1.5.0_06 and OS is Windows 2000. 

 

public Message signSOAPEnvelope(SOAPEnvelope unsignedEnvelope)

      throws Exception

   {

      WSSecSignature signer = new WSSecSignature();

 

      String alias = "16c73ab6-b892-458f-abf5-2f875f74882e";

      String password = "security";

      signer.setUserInfo(alias, password);

 

      Document doc = unsignedEnvelope.getAsDocument();

      WSSecHeader wssecHeader = (WSSecHeader)unsignedEnvelope.getHeader();

            

      Document signedDoc = signer.build(doc, crypto,wssecHeader);

      Message signedSOAPMsg = new Message(signedDoc);

      return signedSOAPMsg;

   }

 

It is apparent that error is coming from WSSecHeader wssecHeader =
(WSSecHeader)unsignedEnvelope.getHeader(); step as we can not type cast
object of javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeader to
org.apache.ws.security.message.WSSecHeader.

 

So is there any way overcome from this problem?
