Subject: RE: [wsbpel] Issue 36 - Multiple instances of event handler
If I understand it right, we're essentially agreeing on the concept, and ready to argue about syntax - at least regarding how to treat the message variable. I understand the concern about introducing new constructs in the language. On the other hand, a simple, recognizable syntax is important for developers. Implementers would care more about having clear operational semantics than about the details of the syntax, I think.

In the pass-by-value world, a functional argument merely exposes a variable declared inside the function scope to the calling scope (so it can be initialized by the caller); typing the argument in the function decleration is a notiational convenience for the programmer so that he does not have to declare the variables twice (ala old K&R style C declerations).
