I was in two minds whether to post on the dev or user section. I'll stick to the dev section in future, for issues like this. 1) & 2) arn't really an option as: A. They don't remove the burden from the developer. B. Different handlers will be deployed depending on the annotation. This is not something I want the user to have to understand or remember to do. 4) Doesn't sound like a good idea, due to the reasons you mention. 3) Sounds most promising. I have the following questions: A. Will this require any changes to jbossws? B. Will the code I plug in have access to the service implementation class? I will need to pull off the annotations to decide what to do with the handler chain. I don't need access to the actual instance. C. Would I need to do anything special, in the situation where the developer has included a webservices.xml for an unrelated purpose? To be clear, I think I need two things: 1) Access to the handlerchain in order to insert my own handler. 2) Access to the service impl class so that I can read off the annotations. Thanks, Paul. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/641234#641234] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
