RE: [wsrp-wsia] [I#103] Proposed resolution: In vendor extensibil ity"object any" should be an array

[Gil Tayar <Gil.Tayar@webcollage.com>]

Because there is not a lot of discussion of this issue (and because I agree
with the resolution :->), issue #103 has been changed to "Tentative Resolve"
based on the proposal below. If nobody objects, I will move it to "Resolve"
at 16-Oct-2002.

Agreed that Object[] in the IDL-like representation better represents the
normative WSDL.

Proposal: Change the "Object any" references to vendor extensibility of
data objects to "Object[] any".

I agree,

it is an array of XML elements.
The code generators do define arrays of "whatever they use to represent the
<any../> extension" -objects.
AXIS uses MesagesElement[] and .NET uses XmlElement[].
To reflect the maxOccurs="unbounded" in the spec we should indeed define
the any extension as Object[].

Title:  In vendor extensibility "object any" should be an array
Document Section: All
Description:
In all the places we have an "any" element for vendor extensibility, it is
really an array, which means it should be represented in the spec as
"Object[] any". In the WSDL it is indeed an array: "<any
maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" namespace="##other"/>", but currently
the spec represents this
as "Object any".
