[NEW ISSUE] The Bindings specifications should provide exemplaryImplementations for a) Callbacks and b) Conversations

Raiser:

Target:        
       Web Services Binding specification,
JMS Binding Specification, JCA Binding Specification

Description:

At present, it is not clear which, if
any, of the Bindings specifications enable the implementation of two important

features of SCA described in the Assembly
specification - namely Callback interfaces and Conversational
interfaces.

Each of the Bindings specifications
should explicitly declare if it is possible to support each of these features.

For each of the Bindings specifications
that claim to support either or both of these features, the specification

should provide a full description of
at least one exemplary implementation of the feature using the Binding
technology described in the specification.
 Multiple alternative implementations are permitted and may be
added to the specification.

For example, it may be possible to implement
Callbacks using WS-Addressing capabilities with Web services.
If so, and example, showing the use
of appropriate features of WS-Addressing and other relevant WS-*
capabilities should be added to the
specification.   If an alternative exists using (say) WS-Context,
then an
example based on that technology can
also be provided.

Proposal:

None at present.


Yours,  Mike.
