<operation name="opSubmitOrder"
  pattern="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/in-out">
  <input messageLabel="In" element="po:purchaseOrder"/>
  <output messageLabel="Out"
    element="po:acknowledgement"/>
</operation>

Example 15.1 - The original WSDL 2.0 version of the opSubmitOrder operation.


<operation name="opSubmitOrder"
  pattern="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/in-out">
  <input messageLabel="In" element="#any"/>
  <output messageLabel="Out"
    element="po:acknowledgement"/>
</operation>

Example 15.2 - The revised opSubmitOrder operation with the element attribute of the input element set to "#any."


<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=
  "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    I can do anything.
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Example 15.3 - A SOAP message with a soap:Body construct that does not contain a well-formed XML construct.


<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=
  "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    <ToDo>
      I can do anything.
    </ToDo>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Example 15.4 - A SOAP message with a soap:Body construct that does contain a well-formed XML construct.


<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=
  "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    <ToDo/>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Example 15.5 - Another example of a well-formed XML document (comprised solely as a single element) within the soap:Body construct.


<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=
  "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    <ToDo>
      <Icandoanything/>
    </ToDo>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Example 15.6 - Another legitimate XML document in the SOAP body.


<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=
  "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    <ToDo/>
    <ToDo/>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Example 15.7 - An XML document that is not well formed within the SOAP body.
