[jbossws-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBWS-2572) Marshalling JAXB element over SOAPHeader produces an empty element

Marshalling JAXB element over SOAPHeader produces an empty element ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBWS-2572 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2572 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: jbossws-native Affects Versions: jbossws-native-3.0.5 Environment: JDK 1.6, JBoss 4.2.3, Ubuntu Linux 8.10 Reporter: Jose Antonio Hello, I'm trying to set some ws security headers manually in a handler for a Web service client and server. I have generated JAXB bindings from WS Security schema and in the client, I generate a Security element with a UserNameToken inside. Then, I try to put it in the headers in my handler like this: public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext context) { ............................................ ObjectFactory fact = new ObjectFactory(); JAXBElement<SecurityHeaderType> secHead = fact.createSecurity(sec); Marshaller marshaller = ctx.createMarshaller(); SOAPEnvelope envelope = context.getMessage().getSOAPPart().getEnvelope(); SOAPHeader header = (envelope.getHeader() == null) ? envelope.addHeader() : envelope.getHeader(); marshaller.marshal(secHead,header); sec is a JAXB element with the Security element content and is not null and not empty. If I execute my client with this handler in local, using JAX-WS RI 2.1, I get the expected behavior and I get a header with a Security element and a UserNameToken inside. But when I deploy my client in JBoss and try to execute it, I get an empty Security element. There is no UserNameToken inside. I tried the following workaround and it works for JBoss: DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder(); Document doc = builder.newDocument(); marshaller.marshal(secHead, doc); SOAPFactory sFact = SOAPFactory.newInstance(); header.appendChild(sFact.createElement(doc.getDocumentElement())); However, it's not the optimum way of doing it, since I need to create two factories and an intermediary document only to append a child to a header, while it could be done only with one sencence. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
