Subject: RE: [sca-bindings] ISSUE-22: The Bindings specifications should provideexemplary Implementations for a) Callbacks and b) Conversations
Of course. I interpreted Mike's proposal to mean that we could get rid of interface.xyz/@callbackInterface=<interface> in the SCDL in favor of an intent. That would then drive the need for a parameter on the resulting callback intent.

We can tell it based on the fact that the interface has a corresponding callback interface. If a binding is used on a service with a callback interface, and that binding cannot handle callback support, it will generate an error, e.g. "Can't use binding.foo here because binding.foo doesn't support callbacks." Whether a binding can support callbacks or not can be part of its documentation. I don't yet see any value in formalizing this bit of documentation.

We could just decide that it's an intent, like @Integrity or @Conversational. The problem we have with intents in the SCDL is that they aren't parameterizable.....this is not the first time the Policy TC has stumbled over this problem.

This might be useful) in Java, for example, where the forward and callback interfaces are necessarily separate artifacts. However, I don't feel strongly about this use case. Yours, Mike.

From: Mike Edwards [mailto:mike_edwards@uk.ibm.com] Sent: Thursday, Feb 21, 2008 8:15 AM To: OASIS Bindings Subject: RE: [sca-bindings] ISSUE-22: The Bindings specifications should provide exemplary Implementations for a) Callbacks and b) Conversations Peter, Interesting question - and an interesting answer too. 1) For conversational, since this is an intent, a bindingType simply must list the "conversational" intent in its @alwaysProvides or @mayProvide attribute - if @mayProvide, then there needs to, also be a PolicySet which contains a policy which provides the "conversational" intent. 2) For callback, we have a problem. There is no intent "callback" at the moment. Callbacks are defined by various mechanisms, but none of them are intents. So, there is no obvious mechanism by which a bindingType can indicate that it supports callbacks. Perhaps we should invent a new intent "callback" and then also define that it is "automatically" set whenever there is other metadata that indicates that there is a callback interface - it can also be specified explictly using the @requires attribute. If that is done, then a bindingType can indicate its support as for conversational. <Sanjay> Under what circumstances would it be useful to specify the 'callback' intent via the @requires attribute (and not depend upon the interface to express that there exists a callback) </Sanjay> Yours, Mike.

Is it by intents "Callbackable" , "Conversational" , "NotSupportedCallback" , etc. ? Peter From: Eric Johnson [mailto:eric@tibco.com] Sent: Monday, 4.

Mike Edwards wrote: Raiser: Mike Edwards 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. Strategist - Emerging Technologies, SCA & SDO.
