Enable validation in a CXF endpoint

This is very quick/easy to add, will take some time to implement a test case though. Ideally we would add a functional test case that using this feature/interceptor tests both valid and invalid messages,

You CANNOT get you want according to the Description. I wasted three days. I don't know wthether the solution is provided by MULE. I seriously disagree the irresponsible attitude.

If you write like below in a endPoint in configuration:
<cxf:features>
<spring:bean id="SchemaValidationFeature" class="org.mule.transport.cxf.support.SchemaValidationFeature"/>
</cxf:features>

You MUST override the initialize(Server server, Bus bus) method. the initialize(Bus bus) method is never invoked.
like this:

/** Be invoked, if the feature is defined in a endpoint. */
@Override
public void initialize(Server server, Bus bus) { Service service = server.getEndpoint().getService(); addInterceptors(service); }

/** Just for all the service */
@Override
public void initialize(Bus bus) { addInterceptors(bus); }

private void addInterceptors(InterceptorProvider provider) { AbstractPhaseInterceptor<Message> in = new EnabledSchemaValidationInterceptor(); provider.getInInterceptors().add(in); //provider.getInFaultInterceptors().add(in); AbstractPhaseInterceptor<Message> out = new DisabledSchemaValidationInterceptor(); provider.getOutInterceptors().add(out); //provider.getOutFaultInterceptors().add(out); }

Relevant Classes:

class EnabledSchemaValidationInterceptor extends AbstractPhaseInterceptor<Message> {
public EnabledSchemaValidationInterceptor() { super(Phase.UNMARSHAL); addBefore(DocLiteralInInterceptor.class.getName()); }
public void handleMessage(Message message) throws Fault { message.put("schema-validation-enabled",true); }
}

/** Do not validate a reponse. */
class DisabledSchemaValidationInterceptor extends AbstractPhaseInterceptor<Message> {

public DisabledSchemaValidationInterceptor() { super(Phase.MARSHAL); addBefore(BareOutInterceptor.class.getName()); }

public void handleMessage(Message message) throws Fault { message.put("schema-validation-enabled",false); }
}

Fixed in r20429. To enable validation add validationEnabled="true" to your cxf service element in your configuraiton. Validation is only supported on inbound.

Is same fix applicable in 2.2.x? (CXF version=2.1.10)

Nope. This requires CXF 2.3.0
