SOAP Encoding Attributes and Namespace

<< SOAP Encoding

<< Herong's Tutorial Notes on Web Service and SOAP

This section describes the namespace and attributes used in SOAP Encoding.

As we can see from the previous sections, SOAP encoding specification defines the following attributes in its own namespace, "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding".

   <... xmlns:enc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding" ...>
    <... enc:nodeType="simple" enc:id="...">
    </...>
    <... enc:nodeType="simple" enc:ref="..."/>
    <... enc:nodeType="array" enc:arraySize="..." enc:itemType="...">
     ...
    </..>
    <... enc:noteType="struct">
     ...
    </..>
   </...>
