How to add Custom Header to SOAP request via jaxb WITHOUT using SoapHandler

Question

I can't seem to find a way to add in custom header to a Soap request from web service client without using SOAPHandler. I look around for alternatives and BindingProvider seems to do the the job for me. But it didn't work. I am not sure what am I missing here. Here's what I want my request to look like:

    <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ws="http://xx.xx.xx/xxx/provisioning/ws">
   <soapenv:Header>   
                <ws:XXXSecurity xmlns:ws="http://xx.xx.xx/xx/security/ws">
                <ws:Identification type="TrustedApplicationIdentification">
                <ws:ApplicationId>xx</ws:ApplicationId>
                </ws:Identification>
                </ws:xxSecurity>
      <ws:xxLocale xmlns:ws="http://xx.xx.xx/xx/presentation/webservice/locale">
        <ws:clientLocale>en_US</ws:clientLocale>
      </ws:xxLocale>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <ws:GetAllNonProvisionedServers/>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

here the code:

Provisioning service = new Provisioning(url, qName);
ProvisioningPort servicePort = service.getProvisioningPort();

servicePort = service.getProvisioningPort();


Map<QName, List<String>> headersMap = new HashMap<QName, List<String>>();

String mySoapHeader = "<ws:Identification type=\"TrustedApplicationIdentification\">"
    + "<ws:ApplicationId>Password123$</ws:ApplicationId>"
    + "</ws:Identification>" ;//+ "</soapenv:Header>";

List<String> mySOAPHeaders = new ArrayList<String>();
mySOAPHeaders.add(mySoapHeader);
headersMap.put(qSecurityName, mySOAPHeaders);

System.out.println(MessageContext.HTTP_REQUEST_HEADERS);

BindingProvider bp = (BindingProvider) servicePort;
List<Server> findAllNonProvisionedServers = servicePort
            .findAllNonProvisionedServers();

I have used org.apache.axiom.soap.SOAPFactory class to set my WS-Addressing SOAP Headers. Let me know the API that you are using to call web service, so that I can try helping you.

I am using wsimport to create all the java stub classes and using them to make the web service call. I am not sure how to update the header information on a java object. – yousafsajjad Sep 19 '12 at 14:41

        MemberSubmissionEndpointReference endPointReference = new MemberSubmissionEndpointReference();
        Elements referenceParameters = endPointReference.referenceParameters;
        List<Element> elements = referenceParameters.elements;

        SOAPPartImpl soappartImpl = new SOAPPart1_1Impl();
        soappartImpl.addMimeHeader("SOAPAction", "http://www.abc.com/WebServices/UploadService/ProcessUpload");
        SOAPDocumentImpl soapdocumentimpl = new SOAPDocumentImpl(soappartImpl);     
        SOAPHeader ele = new Header1_1Impl(soapdocumentimpl, "");       
        elements.add(ele);

        ProvisioningPort port = service.getPort(endPointReference, EDMOnlineUploadServiceSoap.class, null);

The above example will show you how to add MIME headers to the web service request. Above code can be used as reference. But it is not a full working solution. In my opinion MemberSubmissionEndpointReference will work for WS-Addressing. Please check for other header parameters.

There are other ways of generating the ws client, which will allow you to set headers with ease. Please try them as well.

Thank you guys but it seemed like SOAPHandler is the right way to go, so I am going that way.
