The implementation of com/sun/xml/ws/client/RequestContext.java changed in jaxws-rt v2.2.6. The tracer in this extension replaces the OOTB tracer provided with the CA APM SOA Performance Management (SPM) extension.
Use this extension if you are using jaxws-rt v2.2.6 and see this error message in you logs:
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to com.sun.xml.ws.transport.Headers at com.sun.xml.ws.client.RequestContext.fill(RequestContext.java:339) at com.sun.xml.ws.client.Stub.configureRequestPacket(Stub.java:454)
This field pack replaces the OOTB tracer provided with the CA APM SOA Performance Management (SPM) extension for jaxws-rt v2.2.6.
