"binding" - Binding Definition Element
This section describes 'binding', a definition element that defines a binding for operations defined in an interface to a communication protocol and a message transmission format.
"binding" is a top level element of a WSDL 2.0 document. "binding" is used to define a binding with one or multiple given operations being bound to a communication protocol with extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extensions. The syntax of "binding" looks like this:
<wsdl:binding name="nmtoken" interface="qname1" type="uri"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... <wsdl:fault ref="qname2"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... </wsdl:fault> <wsdl:operation ref="qname3"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... <wsdl:input messageLabel="In"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... </wsdl:input> <wsdl:output messageLabel="Out"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... </wsdl:output> <wsdl:infault ref="qname4" messageLabel="In"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... </wsdl:infault> <wsdl:outfault ref="qname4" messageLabel="Out"> ... extensibility elements from WSDL 2.0 extension ... </wsdl:infault> </wsdl:operation> </wsdl:binding>
Notes on the "binding" element:
Here is an example of "binding" element:
<wsdl:binding name="helloBinding" interface="hy:helloInterface" type="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/soap" wsoap:protocol="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap/bindings/HTTP/"> <wsdl:operation ref="hy:Hello" wsoap:mep="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap/mep/soap-response"/> </wsdl:binding>
