Title: Specify the GetRepositoryItem response for the SOAP binding
Source: Frederic Houbie and Fabian Skivee
Work item code: Date: 2009-09-22
Category: C
Use one of the following categories:
F (Critical correction)
A (corresponds to a correction in an earlier release)
B (Addition of feature),
C (Functional modification of feature)
D (Editorial modification)
Detailed explanations of the above categories can be found in the TC Policies and Procedures.
Reason for change: Current specification explains how to support the SOAP 1.2 messaging framework but does not provide precise information for the GetRepositoryItem operation. This operation is different from the other since it returns the metadata that could be in a binary format.
Summary of change: Add a short explanation of the SOAP response for the GetRepositoryItem operation. The response should be conform to OGC 06-121r8 “OGC Web Services Common Specification”.
Consequences if
not approved:
The SOAP binding for the GetRepositoryItem will remain confusing and limit the interoperability due to the imprecise definition.
Clauses affected:
Other specs Other core specifications
Affected: Abstract specifications
