[jbossws-dev] Binding.getHandlerChain() expected to return a modifyable list

Hi Lance, http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCTS-544 A web service client must call Binding.setHandlerChain(List<Handler>) to programatically set the handler chain on the binding. We believe that Binding.getHandlerChain() may return an unmodifyable list, since it is not sufficient to modify the list returned from Binding.getHandlerChain() Various CTS clients however modify the returned list directly. List<Handler> handlerList = binding1.getHandlerChain(); TestUtil.logMsg("----------------------------------------------"); TestUtil.logMsg("Programmatically registering the following handlers through the binding: \nClientSOAPHandler6, ClientLogicalHandler6"); TestUtil.logMsg("----------------------------------------------"); TestUtil.logMsg("Construct HandleInfo for ClientSOAPHandler6 and add to HandlerChain"); handler = new com.sun.ts.tests.jaxws.sharedclients.dlhandlerclient.ClientSOAPHandler6(); handlerList.add(handler); .... binding1.setHandlerChain(handlerList); With JBossWS all these tests fail because we return an unmodifieable list. We propose to have the tests changed simmilar to List<Handler> handlerList = new ArrayList<Handler>(binding1.getHandlerChain()); cheers -thomas -- xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thomas Diesler Web Service Lead JBoss, a division of Red Hat xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
