question about relation between soap engine and transport listene r

[Dirk Reinshagen_C <DR...@zaplet.com>]

This may have been covered already, if so feel free to ignore...

I had question regarding the relationship between the transport 
listeners and the soap engine.  It seems like in the current 
soap implementation and all of the proposed new implementations
have the engine constructed in the transport listener.  

For instance, in the AxisServlet it constructs a SimpleAxisEngine
if one does not already exist.  The question I had is why the 
engine is not a singleton?  It seems like you would want to share 
the same engine, therefore the same registry among all of the 
different transport listeners.

In this scenario something like the following would occur in
each transport listener:

SimpleAxisEngine engine = SimpleAxisEngine.getInstance();
engine.invoke(msgContext);
