Information technology - W3C SOAP Version 1.2 Part 2: Adjuncts (Second Edition)
Scope:
Abstract
SOAP Version 1.2 is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. SOAP Version 1.2 Part 2: Adjuncts defines a set of adjuncts that may be used with SOAP Version 1.2 Part 1: Messaging Framework. This specification depends on SOAP Version 1.2 Part 1: Messaging Framework [SOAP Part 1].
Introduction
SOAP Version 1.2 (SOAP) is a lightweight protocol intended for exchange of structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. The SOAP specification consists of three parts. Part 2 (this document) defines a set of adjuncts that MAY be used with the SOAP messaging framework:
1.The SOAP Data Model represents application-defined data structures and values as a directed, edge-labeled graph of nodes (see 2. SOAP Data Model).
2.The SOAP Encoding defines a set of rules for encoding instances of data that conform to the SOAP Data Model for inclusion in SOAP messages (see 3. SOAP Encoding).
3.The SOAP RPC Representation defines a convention for how to use the SOAP Data Model for representing RPC calls and responses (see 4. SOAP RPC Representation).
4.The section for describing features and bindings defines a convention for describing features and binding in terms of properties and property values (see 5. A Convention for Describing Features and Bindings).
5.The section on SOAP-Supplied Message Exchange Patterns and Features defines a request response message exchange pattern and a message exchange pattern supporting non-SOAP requests for SOAP responses, (see 6. SOAP-Supplied Message Exchange Patterns and Features).
6.The SOAP Web Method feature defines a feature for control of methods used on the World Wide Web (see 6.4 SOAP Web Method Feature).
7.The SOAP HTTP Binding defines a binding of SOAP to HTTP (see [RFC 2616]) following the rules of the SOAP Protocol Binding Framework, [SOAP Part 1] (see 7. SOAP HTTP Binding).
SOAP 1.2 Part 0 [SOAP Part 0] is a non-normative document intended to provide an easily understandable tutorial on the features of the SOAP Version 1.2 specifications.
SOAP 1.2 Part 1 [SOAP Part 1] defines the SOAP messaging framework.
In previous versions of this specification the SOAP name was an acronym. This is no longer the case.
