Last April, we broke out the WSDL issues for the non-SOAP HTTP binding [1] and started threads on several of them. At the last teleconference [2], we decided to try to resolve these via e-mail. Below is my recommended resolution for each. If you have concerns with any proposed resolution, please speak up. --Jeff ISSUES 6a. Define encoding of complex types in a request URL 41. Define encoding of attributes in a request URL Recommend no change to WSDL spec. Not all bindings can encode all messages. Leave HTTP request URLs segmented, flat, and (somewhat) human readable. Discussion at [3, 4, 5]. 6b. Define encoding for characters outside ASCII in a request URL 6d. Define encoding for URL-sensitive characters in a request URL Recommend no change to WSDL spec. Use URI conventions defined by W3C character model [6]. Discussion at [7, 8, 9]. 6e. Define behavior if an http:urlReplacement search pattern does not have a corresponding named part in the message Recommend clarifying wording in WSDL spec to say that it is a fatal error if there is a search pattern without a corresponding part name or if there is a part name without a corresponding search pattern. Discussion at [10]. 53. Allow operations within a binding to use different HTTP methods 54. Allow binding to any HTTP method 55. Define binding to HTTP headers 56. Define means to specify an authentication requirement Recommend no change to WSDL. Current HTTP binding is simple and adequate. (No discussion.)
