Subject: Re: [xacml] Multiple Decison Request Proposal


Hi Hal,

I just realized that the CorrelationId will not work, and we need the 
IncludeInResult.

The existing 2.0 multiple resource profile defines a few more modes of 
multiple requests than multiple <Resource> elements. For instance, it is 
possible to specify multiple request in the form of an xpath expression 
on the <ResourceContent>, where each node the xpath matches will 
generate an individual request. Like this for instance:

   2 <Request
   3       xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:2.0:context:schema:os"
   4       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
   5       xmlns:md="http://www.medico.com/schemas/record";
   6       
xmlns:xacml-context="urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:2.0:context:schema:os"

  55             <AttributeValue>read</AttributeValue>
  56         </Attribute>
  57     </Action><Environment/></Request>

 From this request there will be multiple results, but there is only one 
<Resource> element. Each result will contain a specific ResourceId XML 
attribute for correlation purposes.

In the corresponding 3.0 multiple request, it will be necessary to use 
the IncludeInResult since there are not multiple Attribute elements, 
which could be used for correlation, even if they had a CorrelationId.

So I think we should drop the CorrelationId proposal, and if necessary, 
people will have to use a synthetic XACML attribute for correlation.

Best regards,
Erik
