title: IBM WebSphere JAX-RPC Client Compression
body: <p>Does anyone know where I can find documentation to support compression of JAX-RPC web service requests from a client using client-side handlers?  I'm looking to compress requests using gzip, and I tried,</p>
  
  <pre><code>SOAPMessage.setProperty(SOAPMessage.CHARACTER_SET_ENCODING, "gzip") 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but got the "java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException: gzip" error.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
  
  <p>Andrew</p>
