Re: [wsrp] Default property type for setPortletProperties

[Rich Thompson <richt2@us.ibm.com>]

I don't see where the use of xsi:type
is required, could you provide a pointer?

Section 7.1.1 explicitly leaves room
for the generation of properties not described by a ProperyDescription.
Elsewhere we are silent about allowing undescribed properties (i.e. they
are not prohibited) ... I think the default on the type was put in to cover
the edge case of an undescribed property which did not carry an xsi:type
attribute.

Subject	[wsrp] Default property type for setPortletProperties

Sec 8.12 has a sentence (from V1) that reads as follows:

"Each property declaration includes a name and type (default = xsd:string)"

This is a bit odd since getPortletPropertyDescription describes the 
property of each property, and the type is also included via the 
xsi:type attribute on the Property value. So, what is the purpose of 
saying that, by default, the property is of type xs:string?

Any comments?

Subbu
