Howto reach AMFHeader in Interceptor?

[GeHe]

Hello,

the title says it all. I have registered an MessageInterceptor and try to get
the header out. But i can not reach them through the MessageProcessingContext context or Message inputMessage.
By debugging i noticed that in the MessageBrokerFilter they are in the ActionContext.requestMessage.requestHeaders. How can i get them in the Interceptor?

I also noticed, that outgoing header are not received, not set in the outgoing message?

Can you provide more details as to what exactly isn't there that you are expecting? You should definitely be able to get to the headers through the Message interface.

Thank you for response. I have written a testclient to try spring blazeds integration with headers.



import flex.messaging.io.amf.client.AMFConnection;
import junit.framework.TestCase;

public class TestBaseService extends TestCase {

public void testHelo() throws Exception {
AMFConnection connection = new AMFConnection();
connection.connect("myurl");
connection.addAmfHeader("key", "value");
Object result = connection.call("myservice.hello");
}
}


But in the interceptor



import org.springframework.flex.core.MessageInterceptor;
import org.springframework.flex.core.MessageProcessingCon text;

import flex.messaging.messages.Message;

public class FlexInterceptor implements MessageInterceptor {

@Override
public Message postProcess(MessageProcessingContext context, Message inputMessage,
Message outputMessage) {
outputMessage.setHeader("key_out", "value_out");
return outputMessage;
}

@Override
public Message preProcess(MessageProcessingContext context, Message inputMessage) {
// control incoming msgs
String header = (String) inputMessage.getHeader("key");

return inputMessage;
}

}


i do net geht the header "key" (and the set header "key_out" does not get out). When i debug just before the interceptor (flex.messaging.endpoints.amf.MessageBrokerFilter. invoke(final ActionContext context)) i can see the header in the context.requestMessage.requestHeaders.

Conclusion: I expected the header to retrieve by inputMessage.getHeader("key"); - it is there, but i do not get it.

I haven't seen any API method to get to a specific header yet. But, there is a getHeaders() method which returns a Map for the message headers. You should be able to then use the get("headerNameAsKey") to get the value of a specific message meader.

Code snippet:
inputMessage.getHeaders().get("key");

or... directly get the list of values and iterate through...

Collection headers = message.getHeaders().values();
for(Object header:headers) {
// read the header or do something
}

To set the header the method is :
inputMessage.setHeaders(Map map)
