JAX-WS client: maintain session/cookies across multiple services

Question

I\'m using Netbeans to automatically create webservice clients based off WSDL files. This works well, except the webservices I\'m using require that I pass in a custom cooki

Answer 1

I've found a solution.

You can get response headers using this after you've made the call:

((BindingProvider)port).getResponseContext().get(MessageContext.HTTP_RESPONSE_HEADERS);

Find the Set-Cookie header and store its value.

Then before your next request (in any webservice) you can set the Cookie header:

((BindingProvider)port).getRequestContext().put(
            MessageContext.HTTP_REQUEST_HEADERS,
                Collections.singletonMap("Cookie", Collections.singletonList(cookieValue)
            )
        );
