Subject: Issue - 44 - portType is duplicated on Invoke activity and partnerLinkType
This issue has been added to the wsbpel issue list. The issues list is posted as a Technical Committee document to the OASIS WSBPEL TC pages on a regular basis. The current edition, as a TC document, is the most recent document with the title in the "Issues" folder of the WSBPEL TC document list - the next posting will include this issue. The list editor's working copy, which will normally include an issue when it is announced, is available at this constant URL.
A partnerLinkType do refer to a maximum of two portTypes. Assuming that a process
does not invokes itself, then the Invoke refers to the partnerRole, not myRole, so
there is only one possible portType, for that Invoke. In the other hand, if we assume
the process can invoke itself, then it will be better to specify the role in the
Invoke activity instead of the portType, because role has process semantics instead
of the portType.
Submitter's Proposal: I propose that portType on the Invoke activity be removed and
instead an optional role be included instead. When the role is specified, it must
correspond to one of the two roles defined in the partnerLink. If the role is not
specified the partnerRole in the partnerLink should be assumed.
