I assume the access point value ist the service.wsdl URL, not a literal named "WSDL". See this cite from Appendix A: "In all cases where a WSDL Implementation Document is used, the URLType attribute of the accessPoint corresponding to each port MUST be "other", and the value of the accessPoint MUST be the URL of the WSDL Implementation Document." This is exactly what we have now. The only thing the tech note does in addition is: "The bindingTemplate MUST contain a tModelInstanceInfo element with a tModelKey of the WSDL Address tModel." So basicly this tModel does the same thing as the V3 "wsdlDeployment". Yes, I know the addition of wsdlDeployment to V3, and was targeting for that once we add V3 (perhaps even in this tech note?). So the question is, Do we want to mention/support/adapt parts of UDDI tech note 2? From what is left now I see only this appendix A for us. But however I would rather drop it. People wanting to support v2 tech note can still add this reference without affecting our model (because we have cite one implemented in our model). I would drop for the following reason: Implementors of products against UDDI v2 would then need to add this reference. When migrating to UDDI v3 they would publish redundant information. Or do we want publishers to distinguish whether v2 or v3 is being used?

Presumably the service file.wsdl URL is taken from the overview document URL (see example of use B.9.4)??? If this is the correct interpretation (or we agree that it's ambiguous) then I would suggest we don't add this and wait for UDDI v3: http://uddi.org/pubs/uddi-v3.0.1-20031014.htm appendix B.1.2 text ----------- B.1.2 Using the "wsdlDeployment" value Instead of directly providing the network address in the accessPoint, it is occasionally useful or necessary to provide this information through indirect means. One common scenario for such a behavior is when the accessPoint is embedded within a WSDL file. In such a scenario, the UDDI accessPoint contains the address of the WSDL file, and the client then must retrieve the WSDL file and extract the end point address from the WSDL file itself. In this case, decorating the UDDI accessPoint with a useType ="wsdlDeployment" is appropriate. A sample of such behavior is as follows: <bindingTemplate bindingKey="uddi:example.org:catalog"> <description xml:lang="en"> Browse catalog Web service </description> <accessPoint useType="wsdlDeployment"> http://www.example.org/CatalogWebService/catalog.wsdl </accessPoint> <categoryBag> <keyedReference keyName="uddi-org:types:wsdl" keyValue="wsdlDeployment" tModelKey="uddi:uddi.org:categorization:types"/> </categoryBag> </bindingTemplate> In the example above, a client would be able to parse the result of the bindingTemplate and determine the end point of the Web service within the WSDL file discovered in the accessPoint element. Note that the bindingTemplate has also been categorized with the "wsdlDeployment" value from the uddi.org:categorization:types scheme so that it can be discovered through a find_binding API call. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Jacob [mailto:richard.jacob@de.ibm.com] Sent: 19 January 2004 12:18 To: Richard Jacob Cc: Andre Kramer; wsrp-pfb@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: [wsrp-pfb] [UDDI#3] use of UDDI's wsdl address tModel However, we may decide to not to support the v2 technote right from the start. But on the other hand it specifies exactly what we want - indirection and the wsdl being the authoritative source.

However usually the access point is the real endpoint. While in our case the access point is the wsdl holding the endpoints. This indirection is expressed by the WSDL Address tModel in the UDDI technote v2. Could you also verify this ( http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/uddi-spec/doc/tn/uddi-spec-tc-tn-wsdl-v200-20031104.pdf ) ?

I noted that the wsrp_v1_Bindings tModel does "inherit wsdl-ness" by use of the keyedReference "uddi-og:types" / "wsdlSpec" (section 5.2.3). But do we not already have 2 tModels: WSRP_Producer and WSRP_v1_Bindings, so you are adding a 3rd WSDL Address tModel? regards, Andre -----Original Message----- From: Richard Jacob [mailto:richard.jacob@de.ibm.com] Sent: 19 January 2004 09:51 To: wsrp-pfb@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [wsrp-pfb] [UDDI#3] use of UDDI's wsdl address tModel The WSDL in UDDI V2 technote contains a section discussing WSDL as the authoritative source for port access points in Appendix A. It mandates to reference a tModel indicating that the access point is the WSDL URL and that port endpoints must be retrieved from the WSDL. Here is an excerpt of Appendix A: "If a WSDL Implementation Document is being used then the bindingTemplate MUST contain sufficient information to identify the port address in the WSDL Implementation Document. The mapping described here MUST be used instead of the mapping defined in section 2.4.5. In all cases where a WSDL Implementation Document is used, the URLType attribute of the accessPoint corresponding to each port MUST be "other", and the value of the accessPoint MUST be the URL of the WSDL Implementation Document. The bindingTemplate MUST contain a tModelInstanceInfo element with a tModelKey of the WSDL Address tModel. This tModelInstanceInfo element, in combination with the protocol and transport information from the binding tModel, provides the necessary information to locate and interpret the endpoint address." This would mean that our Producer's bindingTemplate (currently we have only one) would reference that tModel in addition.
