Alessio,

Thanks for the reply. 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.
