Binding Level WSDL Elements

The LDAP Binding Component binding level WSDL elements include the binding, operation, and message extensibility elements.

Binding elements define the file transport-specific information for operations and messages.

LDAP Binding Element

The LDAP binding extensibility element allows the association of a binding to be LDAP protocol specific. When you create a WSDL file for a BPEL project in the NetBeans IDE, the New WSDL Document Wizard generates the LDAP binding definition, which includes a name you specify and a type that is generated by the wizard.

The following example illustrates the LDAP binding element:

<binding name="LDAPBinding" type="tns:LDAPPortType">
    <ldap:binding/>
    ...
</binding>

LDAP Operation Element

The LDAP operation element defines the supported operations. For the LDAP Binding Component the operations that can be supported include the following:

• searchRequest

• updateRequest

• compareRequest

• insertRequest

• deleteRequest

• addConnectionRequest

The following example illustrates the LDAP operation element:

<binding name="LDAPBinding" type="tns:LDAPPortType">
    <ldap:binding/>
    <wsdl:operation name="LDAPSearchOperation">
        <ldap:operation type="searchRequest"/>
        ...

LDAP Output Element

The LDAP output element extends the binding element to specify properties associated with writing output messages. In the NetBeans IDE, select a ldap:output() element to view and modify the output properties. The following table describes the available output properties.
