WS-Addressing Member Submission Policy Assertion Namespace Change in WCF

Posted by arungupta on October 03, 2006 at 04:07 PM | Comments (0)

WCF RC1 (probably in Jul CTP as well) changed the policy assertion namespace URI to declare the usage of Member Submission WS-Addressing. The namespace was changed from:

http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy/addressing

http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/08/addressing/policy

Thus any WSDL published by a WCF-based service endpoint using Member Submission WS-Addressing cannot be imported by WSIT clients directly. We will provide a fix in the days to come.

But in order to fix the problem, in the meanwhile, when importing such a WSDL using wsimport, you need to localize the WCF-generated WSDL, change the namespace to the original namespace (ending in 2004/09/policy/addressing) and then import it using wsimport.

Similarly, any WSDL published by a WSIT-based endpoint cannot be imported by svcutil directly. The temporary fix involves localizing the WSIT-generated WSDL, changing the namespace as it is recognized by their tools (ending in 2004/08/addressing/policy) and then importing it using their tool.
