The above specification describes a
standard way to associate a SOAP message with one or more attachments in their
native format in a multipart MIME structure for transport. The specification
combines specific usage of the Multipart/Related MIME media type (RFC 2387)
and the URI schemes discussed in RFC 2111 and RFC2557 for referencing MIME
parts.
attachment specifications (mTom,
attachment profiles ?) are a mystery to me. Could someone tell me (briefly)
what type we are supporting in the current implementation? The serialisation code looks remarkably simple !
