Subject: Re: [wsbpel] Issue 157 - proposal - latest revision



Hi Charlton,

I am OK with the changes in general, except:

"*      If the keepSrcElementName attribute is set to "yes", an extra replacement step MUST be performed to  replace the destination element-name with the source element-name  (i.e. [namespace name] and [local name] properties)."

In WS-BPEL, the convention is to use "yes"-vs-"no", NOT, "true"-vs-"false".

The default is still kept as "no". The semantics of "keepSrcElementName" completely equivalent to "replaceDestinationElementName". This should be just a pure syntactic change.

I hope that is OK with everyone.



Regards,
Alex Yiu

Hi Rania,

On further review I don't see any issue with using  "keepSrcElementName" (or "keepSourceElementName").

With your amendment, do you intend to replace:

"*      If the replaceDestinationElementName attribute is set to  "yes", an extra replacement step MUST be performed to replace the  destination element-name with the source element-name (i.e.  [namespace name] and [local name] properties)."

with

"*      If the keepSrcElementName attribute is set to  "false" (default), an extra replacement step MUST be performed to  replace the destination element-name with the source element-name  (i.e. [namespace name] and [local name] properties)."

and to replace:

"RE (Replace-Element-properties): First, remove all [children] and  [attribute] properties of the destination EII. Then, copy and add all  [children] and [attribute] properties of the source EII to the  destination EII. An OPTIONAL replaceDestinationElementName attribute  is provided to further refine the behavior:"

with

"RE (Replace-Element-properties): Replace the element at the  destination with a copy of the element at the source - by first  removing all [children] and [attribute] properties of the destination  EII, then copying and adding all [children] and [attribute]  properties of the source EII to the destination EII. An OPTIONAL  keepSrcElementName attribute is provided to further refine the  behavior:"

This is how I see the text reading with your amendment.

I would use the example provided for EII-to-EII copy with  keepSrcElementName to illustrate it.

I also wanted to pin down whether you sought to have the examples  incorporated into the spec itself or a part of a primer. Let me know  what your stance is on this....

I strongly  prefer  'keepSrcElementName' instead of  'replaceDestinationElementName' for the sakes of simplicity and XML ;)

That would also change the description of RE (Replace element  properties) to say: "replace the element at the destination with a  copy of the element at the source. If the 'keepElementName'  attribute is set to false (default), then an additional step is  required where the name of the copied element is replaced with the  name of the destination element (add an example)."

This is instead of the current description:
•    RE (Replace-Element-properties): First, remove all [children]  and [attribute] properties of the destination EII. Then, copy and  add all [children] and [attribute] properties of the source EII to  the destination EII. An OPTIONAL replaceDestinationElementName  attribute is provided to further refine the behavior:
