3.4 Specifying the HTTP Version

Description[top]

Every Binding component MUST indicate what version of HTTP is in use for the operations of the interface that this binding applies to.

By default, HTTP/1.1 [RFC2616] is used.

Relationship to WSDL Component Model[top]

The HTTP binding specification adds the following property to the WSDL component model (as defined in [WSDL-PART1]):

• {http version}, a string value to the Binding component.

XML Representation[top]

<definitions >
  <binding name="xs:NCName" interface="xs:QName"? type="xs:anyURI"
           whttp:version="xs:string"? >
  </binding>
</definitions>

The XML representation for specifying the HTTP version is an optional attribute information item with the following Infoset properties:

• A [local name] of version

• A [namespace name] of http://www.w3.org/2004/08/wsdl/http

• A type of wsdls:string

• A default value of "1.1"
