I imagine CXF's WS-A layer would not have the ability to accommodate
the situation where an operation exposed by a service provider is
associated with one portType, and the corresponding callback operation
is associated with a different portType? Can someone confirm?
I'm interested to know because the implementation of asynchronous
calls in ws-bpel seems to require this, in that the relationship of
the BPEL process with an asynchronous service provider is modeled as a
partner link with the role of each party associated with a distinct
portType. For example:
...
xmlns:plnk="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/plnktype"
...
<plnk:partnerLinkType name="AsyncOperationPartnerLinkType">
<plnk:role name="serviceProvider" portType="tns:ServicePortType">
</plnk:role>
<plnk:role name="serviceConsumer" portType="tns:CallbackPortType">
</plnk:role>
</plnk:partnerLinkType>
Regards,
Callum.
