Hi Puny,

In your handleRequest, set the properties as:

context.setProperty("foo", "bar");

For a servlet-based endpoint, you service endpoint implementation has to
implement javax.xml.rpc.server.ServiceLifecycle. Then you can access the
servlet context in the init method as follows:

public void init(Object context) {
   servletEndpointContext = ((ServletEndpointContext)context);
   if (servletEndpointContext == null) {
       System.out.println("In init(): servletEndpointContext is null");
   }
}

In the service endpoint implementation method, you can access the
properties as:

MessageContext messageContext =
servletEndpointContext.getMessageContext();
if (messageContext != null) {
    String propVal1 = (String)messageContext.getProperty("foo");
}

If you want, you can modify this property in your method implementation
and access the modified property in handleResponse of your server-side
handler.

Thanks for your interest in JAX-RPC.

Regards,
-Arun
