Subject: Issue - 170 - Proposed Text
We resolved issue 170 by saying that I would propose some text for an implementer's note that I would first send out to the list for review. Here is the text I think we should add. Insert after the paragraph in section 11.4 that begins "Note that the <reply> activity corresponding to a given request has two potential forms." Implementer's Note: BPEL treats faults generically, without respect to which particular transport they have been bound to. Normally, when sending or receiving a fault, a BPEL would specify generic fault information in the abstract fault message and then a WSDL 1.1 binding would transform that generic information into/from specific error information unique to the transport being bound to. In the case of SOAP this would mean providing a mapping between generic fault data and SOAP's fault code, fault string, fault actor and fault description values. However the WSDL 1.1 standard SOAP binding explicitly precludes mapping any information from an abstract fault message to a bound SOAP fault other than the fault description. In other words there is no standard way to specify information in a BPEL that will eventually be bound into the fault code, fault string and fault actor values of a SOAP fault. This specification does not provide a resolution for this problem.
