How to read SOAP Header information from request and add it to response in spring web services

I am working on spring web services. I need to add some custom elements in the request and response message.which should look like this:

<soapenv:Envelope>
   <soapenv:Header>
      <tid:SplsTID>
         <tid:Trantype>123</tid:Trantype>
         <tid:Tranver>234</tid:Tranver>
      </tid:SplsTID>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <get:GetOrderNumberRequest LoggingLevel="REGULAR" MonitorFlag="Y">
         <get:Header>
            <get:TransactionId>111</get:TransactionId>
            <get:SourceSystemId>SOMS</get:SourceSystemId>
            <get:DateTime>2011-11-11T11:11:11</get:DateTime>
         </get:Header>
         <get:Body>
            <get:StaplesOrderNumber RangeFlag="N" ReleaseFlag="N">
               <get:OrderNumber Count="1" End="11" Start="9"/>
            </get:StaplesOrderNumber>
         </get:Body>
      </get:GetOrderNumberRequest>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

i am able to append <tid:SplsTID> under <soapenv:Header> in request by modifying the WSDL file. which looks like this:

<wsdl:message name="GetOrderNumberRequest">
        <wsdl:part element="tns:GetOrderNumberRequest" name="GetOrderNumberRequest">
        </wsdl:part>
        <wsdl:part element="sch1:SplsTID" name="SplsTID">
        </wsdl:part>
    </wsdl:message>
    <wsdl:message name="GetOrderNumberResponse">
        <wsdl:part element="tns:GetOrderNumberResponse" name="GetOrderNumberResponse">
        </wsdl:part>
        <wsdl:part element="sch1:SplsTID" name="SplsTID">
        </wsdl:part>
    </wsdl:message>
    <wsdl:portType name="ONAS">
        <wsdl:operation name="GetOrderNumber">
            <wsdl:input message="tns:GetOrderNumberRequest" name="GetOrderNumberRequest">
            </wsdl:input>
            <wsdl:output message="tns:GetOrderNumberResponse" name="GetOrderNumberResponse">
            </wsdl:output>
        </wsdl:operation>
    </wsdl:portType>

The problem is, i want to read <tid:SplsTID> part from the request and wanted to append it under soap header part of the response, which is not happening. i am using annotation based end point. what is the code which will read the soap header and will append the same in the response.

currently my end point class is:

@Endpoint
public class OrderNumberServiceEndPoint {
    public static final String NAMESPACE_URI = "http://schemas.staples.com/onas/getOrderNumber";

    /**
     * The local name of the expected request.
     */
    public static final String REQUEST_LOCAL_NAME = "GetOrderNumberRequest";

    /**
     * The local name of the created response.
     */
    public static final String RESPONSE_LOCAL_NAME = "GetOrderNumberResponse";

    private GetOrderNumberService getOrderNumberService;

    public void setGetOrderNumberService(
            GetOrderNumberService getOrderNumberService) {
        this.getOrderNumberService = getOrderNumberService;
    }

    @PayloadRoot(localPart = REQUEST_LOCAL_NAME, namespace = NAMESPACE_URI)
    public GetOrderNumberResponse processOrderNumberRequest(
            GetOrderNumberRequest request) throws Exception {
        GetOrderNumberResponse response = null;
        try{
        response = getOrderNumberService.executeRequest(request);
        }catch(CannotCreateTransactionException e){
            logger.error(ErrorConstants.ERROR_E17);
            throw new ServiceException(ErrorConstants.ERROR_E17);
        }
        return response;
    }

}

Let me know if more details are required. Any help would be appreciated.

How do you add elements to a SOAP header in Java?

SOAPHeader header = message. getSOAPHeader(); QName headerName = new QName("http://ws-i.org/schemas/conformanceClaim/", "Claim", "wsi"); SOAPHeaderElement headerElement = header. addHeaderElement(headerName); headerElement. addAttribute(new QName("conformsTo"), "http://ws-i.org/profiles/basic/1.1/");

What is the difference between SOAP header and HTTP header?

HTTP headers are used for HTTP Basic/Digest authentication. SOAP headers are used for WS-Security style authentication. Unfortunately, the process of applying WS-Security differs from SOAP stack to SOAP stack; you'll have to consult the documentation of whichever stack you're using.

Finally i succeeded in reading the soap header from request and append into response. This is how my end point method looks like now:

 @PayloadRoot(localPart = REQUEST_LOCAL_NAME, namespace = NAMESPACE_URI)
    @ResponsePayload
    public GetOrderNumberResponse processOrderNumberRequest(
            @RequestPayload GetOrderNumberRequest request,
            MessageContext messageContext) throws Exception {
        logger.info("Request Received");
        // read SOAP Header from request and append in response
        SaajSoapMessage soapRequest = (SaajSoapMessage) messageContext
                .getRequest();
        SoapHeader reqheader = soapRequest.getSoapHeader();
        SaajSoapMessage soapResponse = (SaajSoapMessage) messageContext
                .getResponse();
        SoapHeader respheader = soapResponse.getSoapHeader();
        TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory
                .newInstance();
        Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
        Iterator<SoapHeaderElement> itr = reqheader.examineAllHeaderElements();
        while (itr.hasNext()) {
            SoapHeaderElement ele = itr.next();
            transformer.transform(ele.getSource(), respheader.getResult());
        }
        // process the request PayLoad
        GetOrderNumberResponse response = null;
        try {
            response = getOrderNumberService.executeRequest(request);
        } catch (CannotCreateTransactionException e) {
            logger.error(ErrorConstants.ERROR_E17);
            throw new ServiceException(ErrorConstants.ERROR_E17);
        }
        logger.info("Response Sent");
        return response;
    }

This is probably only half the answer you need but I think you can read the soapheaders by getting the (Saaj)SoapMessage from the messagecontext, like this:

@PayloadRoot(
    localPart = "GetHiredCandidatesRequest", 
    namespace = DEFAULT_NAMESPACE
)
@ResponsePayload
public GetHiredCandidatesResponse getKandidaat (
    @RequestPayload GetHiredCandidatesRequest getCandidate,
    MessageContext messageContext) {

    SaajSoapMessage request = (SaajSoapMessage) messageContext.getRequest();
    SoapHeader header = request.getSoapHeader();

    GetHiredCandidatesResponse response = objectFactory.createGetHiredCandidatesResponse();
    response.getCandidate().addAll(
        candidateService.getHiredCandidates(
            getCandidate.getFrom(), 
            getCandidate.getTo()
        )
    );

    return response;
}

Since version 2 you can automatically 'add' some objects to your method's signature, like I add the MessageContext here. I have used this to get the attachments from a soap message for instance. You can probably use other subclasses of AbstractSoapMessage as well since the the getSoapHeder method is in that class.

[edit] BTW: Perhaps you can use Interceptors as well since the request / response is provided there. Take a look at the org.springframework.ws.soap.server.endpoint.interceptor package for some default examples. [/edit]
