2.2.2 Outbound Message Conversion
Outbound message conversion process is the SOAP XML Payload and Oracle Tuxedo typed buffer conversion process that conforms to the “Tuxedo-to-XML data type mapping rules”. Outbound message conversion happens in two phases:
- When GWWS accepts request typed buffers sent from an Oracle Tuxedo application;
- When GWWS accepts SOAP response messages from external Web services.
The following table compares inbound message conversion and outbound message conversion:
Table 2-1 Inbound Message Conversion vs. Outbound Message Conversion
| Inbound Message Conversion | Outbound Message Conversion |
|---|---|
SOAP message payload is encapsulated with <inbuf>, <outbuf> or <errbuf>.
|
SOAP message payload is the entire <soap:body> |
| Transformation according to “Tuxedo-to-XML data type mapping rules”. | Transformation according to “XML-to-Tuxedo data type mapping rules”. |
| All Oracle Tuxedo buffer types are involved. | Only Oracle Tuxedo FML32 buffer type is involved.
