Information technology -- W3C SOAP Version 1.2 Part 1: Messaging Framework (Second Edition)
Scope:
SOAP Version 1.2 (SOAP) is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It uses XML technologies to define an extensible messaging framework providing a message construct that can be exchanged over a variety of underlying protocols. The framework has been designed to be independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics.
This Standard defines the SOAP messaging framework consisting of:
- the SOAP processing model defining the rules for processing a SOAP message;
- the SOAP Extensibility model defining the concepts of SOAP features and SOAP modules;
- the SOAP underlying protocol binding framework describing the rules for defining a binding to an underlying protocol that can be used for exchanging SOAP messages between SOAP nodes;
- the SOAP message construct defining the structure of a SOAP message.
