logging service requests

[Kimberly Nicholls <kn...@liveworld.com>]

I am having trouble understanding how to log requests to my services in 
Axis2, specifically how to pass information between the phases.  I'd 
like to log the client IP address, the response size, the name of the 
method being invoked, and (ideally) the parameter values they're using 
(ie method signature).

I followed the example on creating a logging module, but I found that 
the client IP is only available from the in context; in the out context 
it's null.  I tried writing two handlers, one for the inflow (get the 
client IP) and one for the outflow (get the SOAP action and response 
size, log the info).  But how I can pass information between the inflow 
and outflow contexts? 

I saw this: http://marc.info/?l=axis-user&m=116967807112741&w=2, which 
says "set the incoming IP address on a
InheritableThreadLocal variable to have access to it throughout your 
application," but I don't understand what that means. Where do I define 
the InheritableThreadLocal variable? How do I access it?

Thanks for you help,
Kimberly Nicholls

In the out path , for the operationcontext you can get the incoming
message context and from that you can get the property you are looking for.
