Subject: Re: Issue - 87 - Language tweaking
Yup, that explained it! Thank you for providing the example. I think the proposed change will fix the problem - Original Language in Proposal: Application data is data transmitted in a message outside of the normal message channel, specifically data in a message that is not bound to a WSDL message part. New Language: Application data is data transmitted in a message outside of the normal message channel, specifically data in a message that is not bound to a WSDL message part referenced in the portType/operation definition that applies to the sent or received message. What do you think?
