How do I return custom HTTP response (400 or 401) from axis 2 web service (REST)?

Is there any way or API to return custom HTTP response from RESTful services using AXIS. All I want is to return custom http response such as 400 or 401 to client.

Solution

  • If still open... Here is the code about how the get the HTTPServletResponse object and set Status

    MessageContext responseMessageContext =  
    MessageContext.getCurrentMessageContext();
HttpServletResponse resp =
    (HttpServletResponse) responseMessageContext.getProperty(
    org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETRESPONSE);
resp.setStatus(422);

    Hope useful
