I would think you need to add the node to the RESPONSE message, not the
request message.

Subject: Handlers and SOAP message re-writing


Is the SOAP message considered read-only when it's being handled by the
handlers? I'm trying to use a value in the header I receive to look up a
value to place in the body. I've extracted out the essence of this in the
following lines of code:

	Message requestMessage = context.getRequestMessage();
	SOAPEnvelope envelope = requestMessage.getSOAPEnvelope();
	SOAPElement element = envelope.addChildElement("testElement");
	element.addTextNode("testElementNode");

This code exists in a handler. Unfortunately, the SOAP message that's
leaving the handler does not contain the new element I've just added -- it
almost appears the message is read-only, though no faults or exceptions are
thrown.

The thing that troubles me is that this code works as it should under
Weblogic 7.0's webservice impl. Am I doing something wrong, calling the
wrong APIs or is this a bug?
