Interop Benefits of Processor Substitutability
- Can help the requester and
provider entities negotiate which WSD
and endpoint to use:
- IF: Provider entity
restricts itself to a certain well-known set X of features/extensions
- AND: Requester entity uses an X-conformant
WSDL processor
- THEN: Requester entity knows it can use the WSD
offered by the provider entity.
- Converse: any requester entity with an X-conformant WSDL processor will be
able to use the WSD.
