Re: [ebxml-msg] Id attribute

[Pim van der Eijk <pvde@sonnenglanz.net>]

Hi Theo,

There is an "id" attribute defined in the ebMS3 header schema,  of type 
xsd:ID.  The signature can therefore reference the eb:Messaging element 
using a reference to this attribute.  The wsu:Id attribute is useful to 
add to elements that do not have an identifying attribute themselves,  
such as the SOAP Body element.
