RE: WSDL 1.1 to WSDL 2.0 mapping

Hmm ..thanks!
 
I guess it won't be a good fit going WSDL 2.0 to 1.1, but then documenting what's 
different is going to be very useful info. 
 
Our biggest concern is in migrating our existing services, WSDL 1.1 to 2.0 and i'm 
prepared to accept that might not be a good fit either - you mention SOAP encoding 
and i immediately thought of operator overloading and i guess there are going to be 
a metric tonne of other issues.
 
I don't want to bog the WG with a load more to think about, but given this is something
i'm sure i'm not alone in having to think about, I'd ideally like the backing and support 
of this WG.
 
This might provide a good validation for our spec as well as providing a good source 
of lots of existing real-world test cases!

 Paul, 
 
 There are things in WSDL 2.0 that cannot be expressed in WSDL 1.1, e.g. interface inheritance. However, it is probably feasible to imbed WSDL 1.1 into WSDL 2.0, although you may have to invent some extensions (e.g. for SOAP encoding).

WSDL 1.1 to WSDL 2.0 mapping 

  




 
 one of the more difficult questions i'm being asked at the moment
 is how we will migrate from our WSDL 1.1 documents into WSDL 2.0
 when it arrives.
 
 This task would be vastly simplified if there was a standard mapping 
 between the two languages, with an indication of which WSDL 1.1 features
 cannot be expressed in WSDL 1.1 and vice-versa.
 
 Given we now have a nice component model for WSDL 2.0, is it feasible
 to provided WSDL 1.1 serialisation and deserialisation for WSDL 2.0 ?
 If so, could this be written up as a W3C note under this WG ?
 
 Paul
