SOAP metadata examples?
There are several examples of metadata such as you might find in a SOAP envelope.
They would typically be implemented as separate elements within a separate XML
namespace outside the SOAP envelope but within the body. Some of these are still the
subject of ongoing standardization.
* Transactions: headers that bind multiple SOAP requests (and other sorts of
actions) together to ensure consistent results even in the case of errors.
* Authentication: headers to present a user's authorization to make the given
request.
* Tracing: headers to mark each request distinctly for auditing or troubleshooting
purposes.
* Versioning: headers to indicate any application-specific versions related to the
request.
SOAP example
The top-level element within the body is in a namespace particular to the calendar
widget.
<c:AddListing xmlns:c="http://uche.ogbuji.net/soap-example/calendar">
<!-- Request arguments go here ->
</c:AddListing>
The element name indicates which particular request we're making of the calendar
widget: adding a listing.
