Hi Amila
I am sorry for confusing the qustion.
I am WSDL is using soap binding with http as the transport protocol. In my
secnario the WSDL operation has both intput and output message and the
output message has no part associated with it. My question was should the
service response contain an empty soap body element or should it contain no
soap reference at all [I mean empty http message body]. I read somewhere it
should be an empty soap body element but wanted to verify what people in
this forum think it should be.

thanks
Rishi

http binding has not clearly defined in wsdl 1.1. so if you deal with http
bindings better to use WSDL 2.0

if you use http binding you would not get any soap messages. So we can
throw this option.
Actually this is the case if you have above serario with a
document/literal binding.

I think this should be the case.  the problem here is that wsdl 1.1 spec
does not clearly specify whether we have to use the rpc type message
construction or document type message construction with http binding.


 Can anyone pls confirm what should be the response if the service/soap
