limitting the size of SOAP response

[G Ratnam <ge...@yahoo.com>]

All,
We have a requirement that the size of the response SOAP xml need to be
restricted as the client consuming our web service can accept a response of
maximum size of 100KB.

If the complete response for a particular request exceeds the size limit, we
need to restrict the data we send as the response.

Is there any possibility that we can intercept the response problematically
and amend the response. OR please let me know if there are any other better
way to achieve this. 

Thanks

Hi Geetha;

One way to do this is to add a new Handler (through a module)  where
you have access to the response message. I am not exactly sure how you
can find the current size, but you can acess current response and edit
it from a Handler.
See http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_5/modules.html

Thanks
Srinath
