Subject: RE: syncReply element



Here is what Chris sent me to cover Tony's point (before Tony asked):

   Actually, this was discussed in Vancouver. Even in the event that the
   transport protocol does not support synchronous behaviour,
   such as SMTP, the value of syncReplyMode could still apply
   from the perspective of the actual construction of the message.

   A DeliveryChannel/Characteristics element that
   identifies a Transport that has no syncronous capabilities
   (such as SMTP) which also has a syncReplyMode attribute with a
   value other than "None" will respond with a message that
   contains the same content as if the Transport identified
   did support synchronous messaging (such as HTTP).


I will add the second paragraph (after some wordsmithing) to the section on
syncReplyMode.

Regards,
Marty

Chris,

How exactly does the synchReplyMode affect message content?  Does it affect
signals as well as the (business) response?

In general, the combination of a synchReplyMode other than "none" with a
transport that doesn't support synchronous behavior seems confusing.
Perhaps the name of the attribute doesn't fully capture its intent.  In any
case, it would be great if you could come up with some explanatory text for
the spec.

Thanks,
Tony
