Make the default JAX-WS Client and Endpoint Configuration configurable
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBWS-3011
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-3011
             Project: JBoss Web Services
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: jbossws-native
    Affects Versions: jbossws-native-3.3.0.CR2
            Reporter: David Boeren
            Priority: Minor


I would like to have a possibility to configure the default JAX-WS Client and Endpoint Configuration. Currently the "Standard Client" (in file "standard-jaxws-client-config.xml") and "Standard Endpoint" (in file "standard-jaxws-endpoint-config.xml") are hardcoded in the interface org.jboss.ws.metadata.config.ConfigurationProvider as default configurations.

If a common enterprise specific configuration is in available then it would be nice to have the possibility to set it by default. Currently, every endpoint or client must define the annotation @EndpointConfig and @HandlerChain respectively.

A possibility would be to have two system properties to define the default configuration name for clients and endpoints for a JBoss server.  I think from a JBoss/JBossWS perspective it makes sense to name them something like jbossws.jaxws.default.endpoint.config and jbossws.jaxws.default.client.config

By-the-way: It probably make also sense to make the default  configuration filename configurable. The filename is more or less at the same place in the code. The solution could look similar as described for configuration name. However, configurable default filenames is not a requirement for me.


As a test, I have patched three classes in my JBoss in order to have a possibility to set the default configuration by system property.

For client configuration:
- org.jboss.ws.metadata.umdm.ClientEndpointMetaData
- org.jboss.ws.tools.metadata.ToolsEndpointMetaData
For endpoint configuration:
- org.jboss.ws.metadata.umdm.ServerEndpointMetaData

For example, I have only replaced the line
String configName = ConfigurationProvider.DEFAULT_ENDPOINT_CONFIG_NAME;
with the following
String configName = System.getProperty("jbossws.jaxws.default.endpoint.config", "AXA Standard Endpoint");
