While encoding Java Objects to SOAP XML the composed objects are represented using the multiref tag. ex Phone number contained in address is encoded as
<ns1:getAddressFromPhoneNumber xmlns:ns1="urn:AddressService"> <arg0 href="#id0"/> </ns1:getAddressFromPhoneNumber> <multiRef id="id0" SOAP-ENC:root="0" xsi:type="ns2:PhoneNumber" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xmlns:ns2="urn:AddressServiceNameSpace"> <areaCode href="#id1"/> <exchange href="#id2"/> <number href="#id3"/> <extension href="#id4"/> </multiRef> <multiRef id="id3" SOAP-ENC:root="0" xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/";>111</multiRef> <multiRef id="id1" SOAP-ENC:root="0" xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/";>1</multiRef> <multiRef id="id4" SOAP-ENC:root="0" xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/";>1111</multiRef> <multiRef id="id2" SOAP-ENC:root="0" xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/";>11</multiRef> One obvious advantage of using href and not using enclosed phonenumber equivalent in the address is that by using that multiple address objects can refer to the same phonemuber multiref element. Are there any other advantages that one gets by using this style of represetation for pass by ref objects? What is the schema that defines mutiref element? What are the other styles of encoding? thanks in advance vamsi _________________________________________________________ There is always a better job for you at Monsterindia.com.
