Description

When trying to set HTTP headers from the C++ stub it was found that it does not support the current Axis C++.

From the discussions on the mailing treads, this solution was found.
If we can have the two API functions to set transport properties

int Call::SetExtraTransportProperty (const char* key, const char* value)

int Call::SetTransportProperty (AXIS_TRANSPORT_INFORMATION_TYPE type,
const char* value) the problem is solved.

Also we might need to have corresponding get functions,

const char* Call::GetExtraTransportProperty (const char* key) const char* Call::GetTransportProperty (AXIS_TRANSPORT_INFORMATION_TYPE type)

The wsdl2ws tool generated code will use the appropriate function(s) to set any properties that are in the wsdl.

Also any transport specific handlers too can use these same API functions to set/get transport properties.

Extension of the transport layer is planned in the TO DO list :
