I believe adding optional message parts increase the complexity of WSDL. I believe this is a Bad Thing(tm). As Jeffery has pointed out, XML Schema provides a rich language for expressing this same concept. -- Tom Jordahl Macromedia -----Original Message----- From: Sanjiva Weerawarana [mailto:sanjiva@watson.ibm.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 4:18 PM To: WS-Desc WG (Public) Subject: issue: optional parts in <message>? <issue id="issue-message-parts"> <head>Should the message part mechanism be extended to support optional parts etc.?</head> In WSDL 1.1, a message can only be defined to be a sequence of parts. It is not possible to indicate that certain parts may be optional, may occur multiple times, etc.? Should we do that? Overlapping with XML Schema's mechanisms is an obvious concern. <source>Sanjiva Weerawarana</source> </issue> Could we also start discussing this issue please? Sanjiva.
