Sorry Chinthaka can't blame me ;-) .. no way that I told you WSDL 2.0 can only deal with XML :).

In the spec, it says, if we have our own custom content-type, then it should be compatible with application/xml (http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl20-adjuncts/#_http_ser_xml).

I don't think that thats the case. The WSDL 2.0 spec specifies three serializations, they are application/x-www-form-urlencoded, application/xml and multipart/form-data. And the area in the spec you have referred to is talking about these three. I the section you have referred to the spec says,

"[Definition: The serialization format is a media type token ("type/subtype"). It identifies rules to serialize the payload in an HTTP message. Its value is defined by the following rules. The HTTP request serialization format MUST be in the media type range specified by the {http input serialization} property. "

So it basically supports any media-Type. Its just that the working group took the trouble in describing the three serializations above in detail.


Ok agreed. I was wrong in interpreting it. I guess some one who was working in the HTTP binding can clarify this (IIRC, Dr. Sanjiva was there :D)

Thanks for the clarification, Keith.

Thanks,
Chinthaka
