I have a WCF web service with security mode set to TransportWithMessageCredential. My problem is how do you set the authentication header to a Java JAX-WS client. I generated the client using Netbeans client generation and i am able to pass the credentials by right clicking the service reference and setting the credentials there, but how can you do this in code? I Tried the following but it didnt work:

Java

MyService service = new MyService();
IMyService iService = service.getWSHttpBindingIMyService();

BindingProvider bp = (BindingProvider) iService;
Map r = bp.getRequestContext();

r.put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY, "password");
r.put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY, "username");

Thank you for relying, but it didn't work. I get the following exception:

Please develop. It can't only take 11 minutes to figure out.

The exception says something about Username Handler. I'd discover that path.

wsimport -keep -verbose -Xdebug -XadditionalHeaders -wsdllocation ~/Desktop/ProOnDemandService.wsdl https://path/YourService?WSDL

This command will generate the Security/Additional Headers as an Object, which can be passed to the Business method.

Here is the Code to Invoke the Client with Authentication ---

YourStub stub = new YourStub();

QAPortType portType = stub.getQAPortType();

QAQueryHeader queryHeader = createHeaderInfo(portType);
AuthHeaderObject auth = new AuthHeaderObject();
auth.setUsername(getOnDemandUsername());
auth.setPassword(getOnDemandPassword());
AuthHeaderContainer queryHeader = new AuthHeaderContainer();

queryHeader.setQAAuthentication(auth);
YourRequestObject reqObject = new YourRequestObject();
sysInfo.setLocalisation(anyrequiredproperties);
YourResponseObject sysInfoOne = reqObject.methodName(reqObject, queryHeader,
null);
