Hi! Just use a javax.xml.ws.Provider< SOAPElement > provider. You create a class that implements the Provider interface. You'll get something like: | @Local | @Stateless | @WebServiceProvider( | serviceName = "...", | portName = "...", | targetNamespace = "...", | wsdlLocation = "META-INF/wsdl/...") | @ServiceMode(value = Service.Mode.PAYLOAD) | public class MyServiceBean implements Provider<SOAPElement> { | | public SOAPElement invoke(SOAPElement requestSOAPElement) { | | ... | | } | | } | You can read more about this in the JBossWS documentation. Pay attention to the ServiceMode.PAYLOAD. If you change this to ServiceMode.MESSAGE you can retrieve the whole soap message. You can only implement the javax.xml.ws.Provider with the types SOAPElement, SOAPMessage and Source (e.g. StreamSource, DOMSource, ...).
