package javax.xml.ws.handler;

HandlerResolver is an interface implemented by an application to get control over the handler chain set on proxy/dispatch objects at the time of their creation.

A HandlerResolver may be set on a Service using the setHandlerResolver method.

When the runtime invokes a HandlerResolver, it will pass it a PortInfo object containing information about the port that the proxy/dispatch object will be accessing. @see javax.xml.ws.Service#setHandlerResolver @since 1.6, JAX-WS 2.0
