Hi Bill. I remember reading that at some point in the past. I thought
that inline initialization was a new feature in Ode 1.3 but maybe it
wasn't added after all.
The compliance page needs to be updated in either case. I guess the
question now is whether inline initialization is supposed to work in
1.3.2.
Thanks.

Subject: Re: Inline variable initialization in Ode 1.3.2
Hi Jonathan,
An interesting bit was pointed out to me on the specification
compliance page
(http://ode.apache.org/ws-bpel-20-specification-compliance.html). It may
just be old information but under <assign> activity there is a line
stating "Inline assignment as part of the variable declaration isn't
currently supported." I recall that at some point in time it was not
supported but it would be nice to get this clarified: should inline
initialization work?

Hi Bill. Good suggestion. Even when I echo the inline initialized
variable back to the response it does not work. I created a simpler
example that uses an initialized variable of type string. When I
assign to to the response I get an AssignmentFault saying that the
variable is uninitialized.
