/**
* The root class for all SOAP messages. As transmitted on the
* "wire", a SOAP message is an XML document or a MIME message
* whose first body part is an XML/SOAP document.
*
* A SOAPMessage object consists of a SOAP part
* and optionally one or more attachment parts. The SOAP part for
* a SOAPMessage object is a SOAPPart
* object, which contains information used for message routing and
* identification, and which can contain application-specific
* content. All data in the SOAP Part of a message must be in XML
* format.
*
* A new SOAPMessage object contains the following
* by default:
*
*
* - A
SOAPPart object
*
* - A
SOAPEnvelope object
*
* - A
SOAPBody object
*
* - A
SOAPHeader object
*
* The SOAP part of a message can be retrieved by calling the
* method SOAPMessage.getSOAPPart(). The
* SOAPEnvelope object is retrieved from the
* SOAPPart object, and the SOAPEnvelope
* object is used to retrieve the SOAPBody and
* SOAPHeader objects.
*
* SOAPPart sp = message.getSOAPPart();
* SOAPEnvelope se = sp.getEnvelope();
* SOAPBody sb = se.getBody();
* SOAPHeader sh = se.getHeader();
*
*
* In addition to the mandatory SOAPPart object, a
* SOAPMessage object may contain zero or more
* AttachmentPart objects, each of which contains
* application-specific data. The SOAPMessage
* interface provides methods for creating
* AttachmentPart objects and also for adding them to a
* SOAPMessage object. A party that has received a
* SOAPMessage object can examine its contents by
* retrieving individual attachment parts.
*
* Unlike the rest of a SOAP message, an attachment is not
* required to be in XML format and can therefore be anything from
* simple text to an image file. Consequently, any message content
* that is not in XML format must be in an
* AttachmentPart object.
*
* A MessageFactory object creates new
* SOAPMessage objects. If the MessageFactory
* object was initialized with a messaging Profile, it produces
* SOAPMessage objects that conform to that Profile.
* For example, a SOAPMessage object created by a
* MessageFactory object initialized with the ebXML
* Profile will have the appropriate ebXML headers.
* @see MessageFactory MessageFactory
* @see AttachmentPart AttachmentPart
