Hmm... Well I was referring to generate WSDL to cope with RPC MR. I agree with you, but to handle those we need to fix the RPC MR. So my suggestion was to get what working right, and then address the improvements later. > > I think we should be able to be as expressive and simple as possible > in making our schemas align with the Java structure - and supporting > missing wire parameters which will become null values for Object types > certainly seems reasonable toward that end. Agreed. But if you put minoccurs=0 , that's mean it is possible that parameter not appear in the request. Of course we handle nillable correctly. In my understanding nillable and minoccurs are two different things (please correct me if I am wrong) > > In other words, IMO we should support on the server side: > > Type Result if missing Schema > ---------------------------------------------------------- > primitive exception minOc=1 +1, but we need to burn schema aware passing logic into RPC MR. > Object null minOc=0 Nope, here we need to add additional "nillable=true" attribute for complex types. > > Also, this way if the client wants to send a null there's a way to do > it (don't include the param). > > This doesn't seem that hard to do, and I think it makes for nicer REST > URLs and SOAP messages in some cases. > > Thoughts? > > --Glen >
