Hi, > Is this different from usual MEX? This is the same MEX, but there are identity specific elements in the wsdl. > Is this different from usual MEX? If not we have an impl already .. > I am using wso2xfer.jar from wsas repository. It is not as easy as dropping the module into the repository because, 1) Security policy is set by WSAS. Therefore policy is not available in the services.xml file. I had to retrieve it from WSAS database and insert it into the axis2's automatically generated wsdl file. Mex provides a nice plug-in point to do this. 2) Then comes Identity specific addressing elements, which has to be inserted into the axis2 generated wsdl. So I have to change the binding elements, services elements of the wsdl before replying to the MEX message. 3) Finally, last but not least ... and the latest issue and solution. STS's security policy and Mex security policy are different, but in WSAS I cannot apply Security for a specific operation. Therefore I suggest that MEX must be hosted as a different service with the knowledge of STS. Since we are using WSAS, this is can be easily and beautifully. Any comments, objections on the third point? Since the release is next week I am going ahead with the 3rd point today. Thank you, Dimuthu.
