Re: [Apiman-dev] SOAP support in apiman

That all happens in CXF before it gets to SY. I worked with SAAJ quite a bit back in my Sun days, looks like the basic factory methods are still around: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/xml/soap/MessageFactory.html You can pass in a stream and the HTTP headers to create a new SOAPMessage instance. cheers, keith > On Apr 28, 2016, at 10:46 AM, Eric Wittmann <eric.wittmann(a)redhat.com > <mailto:eric.wittmann@redhat.com>> wrote: > > Thanks Keith - I'll ping Alessio.
