Interface MessageContext

All Superinterfaces:
Map<String,Object>
All Known Subinterfaces:
LogicalMessageContext, SOAPMessageContext

public interface MessageContext
extends Map<String,Object>

The interface MessageContext abstracts the message context that is processed by a handler in the handle method.

The MessageContext interface provides methods to manage a property set. MessageContext properties enable handlers in a handler chain to share processing related state.

Since:
JAX-WS 2.0
