Class HandlerAnnotationProcessor

java.lang.Object
com.sun.xml.ws.util.HandlerAnnotationProcessor

public class HandlerAnnotationProcessor extends Object

Used by client and server side to create handler information from annotated class. The public methods all return a HandlerChainInfo that contains the handlers and role information needed at runtime.

All of the handler chain descriptors follow the same schema, whether they are wsdl customizations, handler files specified by an annotation, or are included in the sun-jaxws.xml file. So this class is used for all handler xml information. The two public entry points are buildHandlerInfo(java.lang.Class<?>, javax.xml.namespace.QName, javax.xml.namespace.QName, com.sun.xml.ws.api.WSBinding), called when you have an annotated class that points to a file.

The methods in the class are static so that it may called from the runtime statically.

      A HandlerAnnotationInfo object that stores the handlers and roles. Will return null if the class passed in has no handler chain annotation.
