Problem
This is probably an easy question for anyone with any moderate expertise with web services using Apache Axis. I have a web service client that was generated by wsdl2java in Axis 1.4. I am writing unit tests that need to access the actual SOAP message itself, and do a comparison to the client side java classes which are generated by Axis. (don't ask) How can I retrieve the actual SOAP message from a response from the service? From what I can gather from searching around is that I have to get the MessageContext. I have tried something along these lines... MessageContext mc = MessageContext.getCurrentContext(); String message = mc.getCurrentMessage().getSOAPPartAsString(); But mc is null in this case.... Any help is appreciated!
