I'm not sure this is an entirely pleasing answer, but you could of course put an application-level failure marker in the body. Of course, in this case, SOAP will not consider that an error has occurred, but I'm not sure you can do much better with SOAP 1.2. We considered doing trailers, but that has it's own complexitites (e.g. would you have to do mustUnderstand checks on the trailers before processing the body...that breaks streaming just as badly). We decided they did not make an 80/20 cut. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Noah Mendelsohn Voice: 1-617-693-4036 IBM Corporation Fax: 1-617-693-8676 One Rogers Street Cambridge, MA 02142 ------------------------------------------------------------------
