The WebServiceContext is treated as an injectable resource that can be set at the time an endpoint is initialized. The WebServiceContext object will then use thread-local information to return the correct information regardless of how many threads are concurrently being used to serve requests addressed to the same endpoint object.
@WebService public class EndpointJSE { @Resource WebServiceContext wsCtx; @WebMethod public String testGetMessageContext() { SOAPMessageContext jaxwsContext = (SOAPMessageContext)wsCtx.getMessageContext(); return jaxwsContext != null ? "pass" : "fail"; } .. @WebMethod public String testGetUserPrincipal() { Principal principal = wsCtx.getUserPrincipal(); return principal.getName(); } @WebMethod public boolean testIsUserInRole(String role) { return wsCtx.isUserInRole(role); } }
