Axis and HTTP version

[JeanLouis Marechaux]

Hi all,
Quite a silly question here...but...
I've got one web service which is sending HTTP/1.0 requests. How can it be changed to HTTP/1.1 ?
(The webservice is implemented with Axis 1.1)

[Lasse Koskela]

Web service sending HTTP 1.0?
Is it really so that the client is sending HTTP/1.1 and the server is responding back with HTTP/1.0?

[JeanLouis Marechaux]

Excuse me Lasse, I acknowledge I was not very clear.
Actually, my Axis client (the consumer) sends HTTP/1.0 and the service deployed sends HTTP/1.1 back
My consumer is written using Axis 1.1

[Lasse Koskela]

Interesting. I wonder whether it's up to the Axis servlet or the underlying web server/container...

[JeanLouis Marechaux]

My understanding is that's it's up to Axis itself.
If you take a look at the HTTPSender.jav (axis.jar), you can see there's a test to determine whether http10 or http11 will be used.
Moreover, my other understanding is that Axis does not rely on the underlying webapp when it sends request, because it explicitally opens a socket. (still check HTTPSender.java)
Maybe I'm wrong somewhere.... Any hint is appreciated.

From axis HTTPSender.java

String httpver = msgContext.getStrProp(MessageContext.HTTP_TRANSPORT_VERSION);
        if (null == httpver) httpver = HTTPConstants.HEADER_PROTOCOL_V10;
        httpver = httpver.trim();
        if (httpver.equals(HTTPConstants.HEADER_PROTOCOL_V11)) {
            http10 = false;
        }

My problem is :
How can I set the MessageContext.HTTP_TRANSPORT_VERSION to http 1.1.
This is a final field

I'm sure I am missing something trivial but what....

Jean -
I believe it is something like this:
Call call = (Call) service.createCall(); //Create a call to the service.
call.setScopedProperty(MessageContext.HTTP_TRANSPORT_VERSION,
HTTPConstants.HEADER_PROTOCOL_V11);
Hope this helps.

[JeanLouis Marechaux]

  
MessageContext msgContext = MessageContext.getCurrentContext();
HTTPConstants httpConst = new HTTPConstants();
call.setProperty(msgContext.HTTP_TRANSPORT_VERSION,httpConst.HEADER_PROTOCOL_V11);

and IT WORKS !! Now my Axis client sends HTTP/1.1
Where the hell did you find this infomation. The doc is so fuzzy about this !!
Anyway, Thank you very much, Matt.
This little problem was becoming irritating

Almost forgot...
It is in one of the Axis sample classes.
