put a variable in an handler and access it from the MessageContext

[Davide Gesino <wi...@libero.it>]

How can I put a variable in an handler and access it from the MessageContext
once I have reached the endpoint?
I have injected the WebServiceContext in my endpoint (with the @resource
annotation).
I have put an object in my handler in a SoapMessageContext as a key pair
value:

public boolean handleMessage(LogicalMessageContext lmc) {
		
	lmc.put(Constants.MY_CONSTANT, new Date());
		
	return true;
}

 and I expected the variable 

would have been accessed as:

context.getMessageContext().get(Constants.MY_CONSTANT);

Anyway what i get is null. Where is my fault??

You need to set a scope for the property.  In a handler, properties 
default to "Handler" scope and thus are only available to handlers.   
You need to call:
lmc.setScope(Constants.MY_CONSTANT,
              MessageContext.Scope.APPLICATION);
to make it Application scoped.
