SOAP does not ever depend on schema validation, though applications of SOAP may choose to validate. SOAP does in certain places describe the semantics of a message without attribute "A" as being the same as a similar message with some particular explicit value for attribute A. This equivalence is NOT normatively explained as resulting from defaulting by a schema. >> (Otherwise, SchemaCentic c14n might be worth >> consideration? >> http://www.uddi.org/pubs/SchemaCentricCanonicalization-20020710.htm >> ) I think not, for the reason stated above. The equivalence classes for SOAP messages are not in general defined by schema. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Noah Mendelsohn Voice: 1-617-693-4036 IBM Corporation Fax: 1-617-693-8676 One Rogers Street Cambridge, MA 02142 ------------------------------------------------------------------
