Early SOAP (2000) “section 5 encoding”
SOAP fancy encoding rules

I want my, I want my RPC (rpc/literal)
Namespace does nothave to be the sameas the parameter values
Argument elements don’teven have a namespace
Lets you model procedure calls, but can’t validate SOAP body with an XML Schema
SOAP encoding convention line-up circa 2003
1. RPC/encoded (the original)
2. Document/literal (based on XML Schema, but doesn’t model RPC)
3. RPC/literal (adds RPC modeling, breaks XML Schema validation)
Can’t we model RPC without breaking Schema validation?
Wrapped document literal style (2005)
<?xml version="1.0"?><soap-env:envelope soap-env:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:soap-enc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance">
<soap-env:header>...
</soap-env:header><soap-env:body>
<m:doSomething xmlns:m=“http://lab49.com/”><m:foo>
…</m:foo><m:bar>
…</m:bar>
</m:doSomething></soap-env:body>
</soap-env:envelope>
Entire body complies with an XML Schemacontaining element doSomething containinga sequence of elements foo and bar
Handy summary
SchemeRatin
gWhy?
rpc/encoded
(1998)BAD
Because “encoded” means “section 5 encoding” and that hairy scheme has been displaced by XML Schemas
doc/literal(2003)
BESTSend an XML Schema compliant document, get one back. Awesome.
rpc/literal(2003)
BADFailed attempt to reconcile document style with RPC.
wrapped/literal(2005)
GOODSuccessful attempt to reconcile document style with RPC.
Web Service Definition Language (WSDL 1.1)
Wrapped style. Notice the operationhas one message part called “parameters”which is an XML sequence of the args
WSDL IS IMPORTANT
Code first / WSDL first decision algorithm
Will other projects be using these
services? i.e. is this part of an
SOA?
Will other projects be using these
services? i.e. is this part of an
SOA?
Yes
Write WSDL first.Think through interfaces carefully, planfor backward compatibility, write lots of
comments, and maintain in source control.
No Are you in a great hurry?
Are you in a great hurry?
Yes
Write code first and use
doc/literal style. i.e. Every
method has one arg. Use
annotations to name everything
and reviewWSDL afterward.
No
Write code first inwrapped/literal style, i.e. Use
annotations to name everything and review WSDL
afterward.
Goodies
• WS-Security (message integrity, confidentiality, and authentication)
• WS-ReliableMessaging
• WS-Routing (messaging patterns and routes)
• WS-Eventing (pub/sub)
• Many other incomprehensible extensions, collectively referred to as WS-*
The SOAP way of thinking
In the meantime…
Will SOAP collapse under its own weight?
Complexity
Low High
SOAP
REST?
Comparison points
• WSDL is a good idea for both SOAP and REST(not a long-term differentiator)
• SOAP and REST both allow you to name resources with URIs(also not a long-term differentiator)
• REST adds value to the entire web(we don’t care)
• REST is easier to program(not for long)
• SOAP provides better support for async messaging
• SOAP is better if developers and network administrators don’t have a good relationship
In conclusion
For enterprise apps, default to SOAP.
But if (like Amazon.com) you•are catering to people who are not making a large
investment in connecting to your service•have control over your network•are trying to reach a broad audience
… then go with REST.
