Subject: Issue - 63 - Support of Array
This issue has been added to the wsbpel issue list. The issues list is posted as a Technical Committee document to the OASIS WSBPEL TC pages on a regular basis. The current edition, as a TC document, is the most recent document with the title in the "Issues" folder of the WSBPEL TC document list - the next posting will include this issue. The list editor's working copy, which will normally include an issue when it is announced, is available at this constant URL.
I'm not proposing to define a new data type system for BPEL. We should leverage what is already in XML schema. Although in the XML schema there is a construct to declare repetitive occurrence of element structure, it is designed for describing the XML document being exchanged ? There is a difference between "there are some repetitive elements within a document" and "there are multiple documents".
Therefore, I propose that we need to support "Array"
For example, if a seller is receiving multiple POMessage from multiple buyers, (assuming the complex type of POMessage is already defined), the BPEL will look like this ..
<process> <variables> <array name="poArray" type="POMessage"/> </variables><sequence> <iterate array="poArray" count="10"> <receive partner="buyer" ... array="poArray"/> </iterate> .... </sequence> </process>
