SOAPHeaderElement is a subinterface of
SOAPElement that represents the root element of a
SOAP header. A SOAPHeaderElement can be created
using the addHeaderElement( ) or
addChildElement( ) methods of
SOAPHeader, or by adding a
SOAPElement directly to a
SOAPHeader.
The setActor( ) method can be used to set the URI
of the intermediate system that is expected to process the header;
the special value
SOAPConstants.URI_SOAP_ACTOR_NEXT should be used
to indicate that the header is intended for the next recipient of the
message. The setMustUnderstand( ) method sets the
header attribute that determines whether the actor to which the
header is addressed must be able to understand and process it; the
method returns a reply containing a SOAPFault if
the actor does not understand the attribute.
