Hello everyone,

What is the meaning of OnlySignEntireHeadersAndBody policy assertion ?

I looked at 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-securitypolicy/200702/ws-securitypolicy-1.2-spec-os.html.
As we are using asymmetric binding, the only description I got in this spec is :
"/sp:AsymmetricBinding/wsp:Policy/sp:OnlySignEntireHeadersAndBody

This optional element is a policy assertion that indicates that the [Entire 
Header And Body Signatures] property is set to 'true'."

My interpretation of the sentence above is that, if this assertion is used for 
a web service endpoint it means that the client has to generate a signature for 
all SOAP headers and the body of the SOAP request he has to send: am I right or 
wrong ?
Best Regards.
