Jump to PostThis is actually a very rarely used feature, so finding documentation on it is difficult. I, for one, believe that sending a username and a password this way is risky, but, if you really need to do so, you can modify the SOAP header request.

The trick is to create a handler for this, there's excellent documentation at this site : http://www.javadb.com/using-a-message-handler-to-alter-the-soap-header-in-a-web-service-client/
My only question is, are you sure this is what you need to do?
hmm, there's rather frequently a need to add request headers.

Think of things like OAuth2 tokens as well.
More common though is to have those things sent as HTTP headers:

i have to pass username in SOAP request.
you were given 2 ways to do that, which one is appropriate for your scenario and the implementation details are up to you to figure out.
I rather prefer sending the details in the HTTP headers, just the username, of course.
