Data files in the SPML File Bindings...

["Jeff Bohren" <jbohren@opennetwork.com>]

At the last meeting we discussed adding a data element to the SPML core to support import and export of SPML data in the File Binding. Attached is an example of what such a file would look like.

 

Note that this change would only require one additionally element definition to the core schema. It would also be strictly added functionality and would not change the current SPML protocol. Also, it would only affect the File Binding and would not affect the SOAP/HTTP Binding.
