Re: [sca-bpel] Issue 2 - Does the spec allow a componentType side file?

[Mike Edwards <mike_edwards@uk.ibm.com>]

Anish,

1) I think that the proposal needs to
define the name and location of the file for a given BPEL implementation.

See line 447 of Assembly spec.

2) The compatibility rules should really
be defined by the Assembly spec.  

Line 438 mentions compatibility without
giving it a precise meaning.

I argue that the introspected information
takes the form of a componentType element.
"compatibility" means that
the introspected componentType information must not conflict
with the explicit componentType information
- taken element by element, the information
must either be the same - or one set
of information must be adding to the information in the
other set in such a way that a combined
componentType is valid.

This should be added to the Assembly
spec.


Yours,  Mike.

Subject	Re: [sca-bpel] Issue 2 - Does the spec allow a componentType side file?

Proposed resolution:

In section 2, line 194 add --
It is also possible to have a component type file that is associated 
with the BPEL component implementation. When such a component type file
is present, as specified in [SCA-Assembly], it provides component type
information in addition to what is found by introspection.


Do we need to define compatibility between what is found by 
introspection and what is available in the side file?

Comments?
