WSDD problem (3rd attempt)

["CHEN,SHIH-CHANG (HP-NewJersey,ex2)" <sh...@hp.com>]

I found a problem about the WSDD that the parameters of transport pivot are
not
populated to the java instnace. However, in the schema of wsdd, it looks
like 
parameters are allowed for transport ... I wonder this is by design or a
bug.

Following is an example of client-config.wsdd:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deployment name="defaultClientConfig"
            xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"
            xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">

 	<transport name="smtp"
pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.smtp.SMTPSender">
		<parameter name="from-address"
value="shih-chang_chen@hp.com"/>
		<responseFlow>
			<handler name="receiver"
type="java:org.apache.axis.transport.smtp.Pop3Fetcher">
				<parameter name="parm1"
value="shih-chang_chen@hp.com"/>
			</handler>
		</responseFlow>
 	</transport>

	<transport name="http"
pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.http.HTTPSender"/>

</deployment>

For this case, if i invoked this.getOption( "from-address" )inside
SMTPSender.invoke(), I got a null. However, I can get the correct value when
I invokethis.getOption( "parm1" ) in Pop3Fetcher.invoke().

In the code of org.apache.axis.deployment.wsdd.WSDDDeployableItem, the
parameters are populated to new instance in
WSDDDeployableItem.makeNewInstance 
method by invoking h.setOptions(getParametersTable()). 

But this mehtod is overriden by
org.apache.axis.deployment.wsdd.WSDDTargetedChain 
withod invoking pivot.setOptions(getParametersTable()).

Am i correct ?

Thanks,
