SOAP (over HTTP) properties

The following properties apply to sending SOAP messages over the HTTP.

Binding properties

Property Type Meaning
Binding Name String

Specify the name of the binding to be used by the service for sending SOAP messages over HTTP.

Binding names can start with a letter, or the underscore character only.

The default binding name consists of the message set name followed by HTTP_SOAP_Binding, for example OrderMessageSetHTTP_SOAP_Binding.

You can change the default if required.

Style String

This property indicates the type of operation for the service. In all cases this property is set to rpc to indicate that the operation is RPC-oriented (messages containing parameters and return values). You cannot change this value.

Transport String

Specify the transport to which the binding corresponds. For a SOAP binding this field defaults to the URI value that corresponds to the HTTP binding in the SOAP specification. You can change this value if required.

SOAP Action String

Specify the value of the SOAPAction header for the operation. The wizard generates a default value, which you can change if required.

Service properties

Property Type Meaning
Service Name String

Specify the name of the service being created for sending SOAP messages over the HTTP.

Service names can start with a letter, or the underscore character only.

The default service name consists of the message set name followed by HTTP_SOAP_Service, for example OrderMessageSetHTTP_SOAP_Service.

You can change the default if required.

Port Name String

Specify the name of the TCP/IP port for the SOAP service. The default is HTTPSOAPPort. You can change this name if required.

SOAP Port Address String

Specify the target address of the SOAP service. This is the URI for the endpoint of the service, for example "MyService/servlet/rcprouter". The wizard generates a default value, which you can change if required.
