1      Introduction

This document describes the SCA Client and Implementation Model for the C++ programming language.

 

The SCA C++ implementation model describes how to implement SCA components in C++. A component implementation itself can also be a client to other services provided by other components or external services. The document describes how a C++ implemented component gets access to services and calls their operations.

 

The document also explains how non-SCA C++ components can be clients to services provided by other components or external services. The document shows how those non-SCA C++ component implementations access services and call their operations.

1.1 Terminology

The key words “MUST”, “MUST NOT”, “REQUIRED”, “SHALL”, “SHALL NOT”, “SHOULD”, “SHOULD NOT”, “RECOMMENDED”, “MAY”, and “OPTIONAL” in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]

 

This specification uses predefined namespace prefixes throughout; they are given in the following list. Note that the choice of any namespace prefix is arbitrary and not semantically significant.

1.3 Conventions

1.3.1 Naming Conventions

This specification follows some naming conventions for artifacts defined by the specification, as follows:

·         For the names of elements and the names of attributes within XSD files, the names follow the CamelCase convention, with all names starting with a lower case letter.

e.g. <element name="componentType" type="sca:ComponentType"/>

·         For the names of types within XSD files, the names follow the CamelCase convention with all names starting with an upper case letter

e.g. <complexType name="ComponentService">

·         For the names of intents, the names follow the CamelCase convention, with all names starting with a lower case letter, EXCEPT for cases where the intent represents an established acronym, in which case the entire name is in upper case.

An example of an intent which is an acronym is the "SOAP" intent.

1.3.2 Typographic Conventions

This specification follows some typographic conventions for some specific constructs :

·         Conformance points are highlighted, [numbered] and cross-referenced to Normative Statement Summary

·         XML attributes are identified in text as @attribute

·         Language identifiers used in text are in courier

·         Literals in text are in italics

2      Basic Component Implementation Model

This section describes how SCA components are implemented using the C++ programming language.  It shows how a C++ implementation based component can implement a local or remotable service, and how the implementation can be made configurable through properties.

 

A component implementation can itself be a client of services. This aspect of a component implementation is described in the basic client model section.

2.1 Implementing a Service

A component implementation based on a C++ class (a C++ implementation) provides one or more services.

 

A service provided by a C++ implementation has an interface (a service interface) which is defined using one of:

·         a C++ abstract base class

·         a WSDL 1.1 portType [WSDL11]

An abstract base class is a class which has only pure virtual member functions. A C++ implementation MUST implement all of the operation(s) of the service interface(s) of its componentType. [CPP20001]

 

The following snippetsSnippet 21Snippet 23 show thea C++ service interface and the C++ implementation class of a C++ implementation.

2.1.1 Implementing a Remotable Service

A @remotable=”true” attribute on an interface.cpp element indicates that the interface is remotable as described in the Assembly Specification [ASSEMBLY]. The following snippetSnippet 25 shows the component type for a remotable service:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>

<componentType xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200903200912">

   <service name="LoanService">

      <interface.cpp header="LoanService.h" remotable="true"/>

   </service>

</componentType>

Snippet 25: ComponentType for a Remotable Service

2.1.2 AllowsPassByReference

Calls to remotable services have by-value semantics. This means that input parameters passed to the service can be modified by the service without these modifications being visible to the client. Similarly, the return value or exception from the service can be modified by the client without these modifications being visible to the service implemementation.  For remote calls (either cross-machine or cross-process), these semantics are a consequence of marshalling input parameters, return values and exceptions “on the wire” and unmarshalling them “off the wire” which results in physical copies being made. For local calls within the same operating system address space, C++ calling semantics include by-reference and therefore do not provide the correct by-value semantics for SCA remotable interfaces. To compensate for this, the SCA runtime can intervene in these calls to provide by-value semantics by making copies of any by-reference values passed.

 

The cost of such copying can be very high relative to the cost of making a local call, especially if the data being passed is large.  Also, in many cases this copying is not needed if the implementation observes certain conventions for how input parameters, return values and exceptions are used. An  @allowsPassByReference=”true” attribute allows implementations to indicate that they use input parameters, return values and exceptions in a manner that allows the SCA runtime to avoid the cost of copying by-reference values when a remotable service is called locally within the same operating system address space  See Implementation.cpp and Implementation Function for a description of the @allowsPassByReference attribute and how it is used.

2.1.2.1 Marking services and references as “allows pass by reference”

Marking a service member function implementation as “allows pass by reference” asserts that the member function implementation observes the following restrictions:

·         Member function execution will not modify any input parameter before the member function returns.

·         The service implementation will not retain a reference or pointer to any by-reference input parameter, return value or exception after the member function returns.

·         The member function will observe “allows pass by value” client semantics (see below), as defined in the next paragraph for any callbacks that it makes.

 

Marking a client as “allows pass by reference” asserts that for all reference’s member functions, the client observeobserves the following restrictions for all references’ member functions:

·         The client implementation will not modify any member function’s input parameters before the member function returns.  Such modifications might occur in callbacks or separate client threads.

·         If a member function is one-way, the client implementation will not modify any of the member function’s input parameters at any time after calling the operation.  This is because one-way member function calls return immediately without waiting for the service member function to complete.

2.1.2.2 Using “allows pass by reference” to optimize remotable calls

The SCA runtime MAY use by-reference semantics when passing input parameters, return values or exceptions on calls to remotable services within the same system address space if both the service member function implementation and the client are marked “allows pass by reference”. [CPP20014]

 

The SCA runtime MUST use by-value semantics when passing input parameters, return values and exceptions on calls to remotable services within the same system address space if the service member function implementation is not marked “allows pass by reference” or the client is not marked “allows pass by reference”. [CPP20015]

2.1.3 Implementing a Local Service

A service interface not marked as remotable is local.

2.2 Component Implementation Scopes

Component implementations can either manage their own state or allow the SCA runtime to do so. In the latter case, SCA defines the concept of implementation scope, which specifies the visibility and lifecycle contract an implementation has with the runtime. Invocations on a service offered by a component will be dispatched by the SCA runtime to an implementation instance according to the semantics of its scope.

 

Scopes are specified using the @scope attribute of the implementation.cpp element.

 

When a scope is not specified on an implementation class, the SCA runtime will interpret the implementation scope as stateless.

 

An SCA runtime MUST support these scopes; stateless and composite. Additional scopes MAY be provided by SCA runtimes. [CPP20003]

 

The following snippetSnippet 26 shows the component type for a composite scoped component:

 

<component name="LoanService">

   <implementation.cpp library="loan" class="LoanServiceImpl”

      scope="composite"/>

</component>

1.1.1                Stateless scope

Snippet 26: Component Type for a Composite Scoped Component

 

Independent of scope, component implementations have to manage any state maintained in global variables or static data members. A library can be loaded as early as when any component implemented by the library enters the running state [ASSEMBLY] but no later than the first member function invocation of a service provided by a component implemented by the library. Component implementations can not make any assumptions about when a library might be unloaded. An SCA runtime MUST NOT perform any synchronization of access to component implementations. [CPP20018]

2.2.1 Stateless Scope

For stateless scope components, there is no implied correlation between implementation instances used to dispatch service requests. 

 

The concurrency model for the stateless scope is single threaded. An SCA runtime MUST ensure that a stateless scoped implementation instance object is only ever dispatched on one thread at any one time. In addition, within the SCA lifecycle of an instance, an SCA runtime MUST only make a single invocation of one business member function. [CPP20012]

2.2.2 Composite scopeScope

All service requests are dispatched to the same implementation instance for the lifetime of the composite containing compositethe component. The lifetime of the containing composite is defined as the time it becomes activeplaced in the runtimerunning state to the time it is deactivatedremoved form the running state, either normally or abnormally. 

 

A composite scoped implementation can also specify eager initialization using the @eagerInit=”true” attribute on the implementation.cpp element of a component definition. When marked for eager initialization, the composite scopedimplementation instance will be created when its containingthe component is started.placed in running state, otherwise, initialization is lazy and the instance will be created when the first client request is received.

 

The concurrency model for the composite scope is multi-threaded. An SCA runtime MAY run multiple threads in a single composite scoped implementation instance object. [CPP20013]

2.3 Implementing a Configuration Property

Component implementations can be configured through properties. The properties and their types (not their values) are defined in the component type file. The C++ component can retrieve the properties using the getProperties() on the ComponentContext class.

 

The following code extractSnippet 27 shows how to get the property values.

 

#include "ComponentContext.h"

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void clientFunction()

{

   …

 

   ComponentContextComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   DataObjectPtr properties = context.->getProperties();

 

   long loanRating = properties->getInteger(“maxLoanValue”);

 

   …

}

Snippet 27: Retrieving Property Values

2.4 Component Type and Component

For a C++ component implementation, a component type is specified in a side file. By default, the componentType side file is in the root directory of the composite containing the component or some subdirectory of the composite root directory with a name matching the implementation class of the component.  The location can be modified as described below.in Implementation.cpp.

 

This Client and Implementation Model for C++ extends the SCA Assembly model [ASSEMBLY] providing support for the C++ interface type system and support for the C++ implementation type.

 

The following snippetsSnippet 28Snippet 210 show thea C++ service interface and the C++ implementation class of a C++ service.

 

// LoanService interface

class LoanService {

public:

   virtual bool approveLoan(unsigned long customerNumber,

                            unsigned long loanAmount) = 0;

};

 

Implementation declaration header file.

Snippet 28: A C++ Service Interface

 

class LoanServiceImpl : public LoanService {

public:

   LoanServiceImpl();

2.5 Instantiation

A C++ implementation class MUST be default constructable by the SCA runtime to instantiate the component. [CPP20011]

3      Basic Client Model

This section describes how to get access to SCA services from both SCA components and from non-SCA components. It also describes how to call methods of these services.

3.1 Accessing Services from Component Implementations

A component can get access to a service using a component context.

 

The following snippetSnippet 31 shows the ComponentContext C++ class with its getService() member function.

 

namespace oasis {

   namespace sca {

     

      class ComponentContext {

      public:

         static ComponentContextPtr getCurrent();

         virtual ServiceProxyPtr getService(

                           const std::string& referenceName) const = 0;

         …

      }

   }

}

Snippet 31: Partial ComponetContext Class Definition

 

The getService() member function takes as its input argument the name of the reference and returns a pointer to a proxy providing access to the service. The returned pointer is to a generic ServiceProxy and is assigned to a pointer to a proxy which is derived from ServiceProxy and implements the interface of the reference.

The following showsSnippet 32 a sample of how the ComponentContext is used in a C++ component implementation.  The getService() member function is called on the ComponentContext passing the reference name as input. The return of the getService() member function is cast to the abstract base class defined for the reference.

 

#include "ComponentContext.h"

#include "CustomerServiceProxy.h"

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void clientFunction()

{

 

   unsigned long customerNumber = 1234;

 

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService)

      short rating = customerService->getCreditRating(customerNumber);

 

}

Snippet 32: Using ComponentContext

3.2 Interface Proxies

For each Reference used by a client, a proxy class is generated by an SCA implementation. The proxy class for a Reference is derived from both the base ServiceProxy and the interface of the Reference (details below) and implements the necessary functionality to inform the SCA runtime that an operation is being invoked and submit the request over the transport determined by the wiring.

 

The base ServiceProxy class definition (in the namespace oasis::sca) is:

 

class ServiceProxy {

public:

   //Possible future extensions

};

Snippet 33: ServiceProxy Class Definition

 

A remotable interface is always mappable to to WSDL, which can be mapped to C++ as described in WSDL to C++ and C++ to WSDL Mapping. The proxy class for a remotable interface is derived from ServiceProxy and contains the member functions mapped from the WSDL definition for the interface. If a remotable interface is defined with a C++ class, an SCA implementation SHOULD map the interface definition to WSDL before generating the proxy for the interface. [CPP30001]

 

For the interface definition:

 

<definitions xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"

      xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"

      xmlns:tns="http://www.example.org/"

      xmlns:cpp="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca-c-cpp/cpp/200901"

      targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/">

 

   <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

         xmlns:tns="http://www.example.org/"

         attributeFormDefault="unqualified"

         elementFormDefault="unqualified"

         targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/">

      <xs:element name="GetLastTradePrice" type="tns:GetLastTradePrice"/>

      <xs:element name="GetLastTradePriceResponse"

            type="tns:GetLastTradePriceResponse"/>

      <xs:complexType name="GetLastTradePrice">

         <xs:sequence>

            <xs:element name="tickerSymbol" type="xs:string"/>

         </xs:sequence>

      </xs:complexType>

      <xs:complexType name="GetLastTradePriceResponse">

         <xs:sequence>

            <xs:element name="return" type="xs:float"/>

         </xs:sequence>

      </xs:complexType>

   </xs:schema>

 

   < message name="GetLastTradePrice">

      <part name="parameters" element="tns:GetLastTradePrice">

      </part>

   </message>

 

   < message name="GetLastTradePriceResponse">

      <part name="parameters" element="tns:GetLastTradePriceResponse">

      </part>

   </ message>

 

   <portType name="StockQuote">

      <cpp:bindings>

         <cpp:class name="StockQuoteService"/>

      </cpp:bindings>

      <operation name="GetLastTradePrice">

         <cpp:bindings>

            <cpp:memberFunction name="getTradePrice"/>

         </cpp:bindings>

         <input name="GetLastTradePrice" message="tns:GetLastTradePrice">

         </input>

         <output name="GetLastTradePriceResponse"

               message="tns:GetLastTradePriceResponse">

         </output>

      </operation>

   </portType>

</definitions>

Snippet 34: Sample WSDL Interface

 

The resulting abstract proxy class is:

 

// @WebService(name="StockQuote", targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/"

//       serviceName="StockQuoteService")

class StockQuoteServiceProxy: public ServiceProxy {

 

   // @WebFunction(operationName="GetLastTradePrice",

   //       action="urn:GetLastTradePrice")

   float getTradePrice(const std::string& tickerSymbol);  

};

Snippet 35: Proxy Class for Interface in Snippet 34

 

The proxy class for a local interface is derived from ServiceProxy and contains the member functions of the C++ class defining the interface. For the interface definition:

 

// LoanService interface

class LoanService {

public:

   virtual bool approveLoan(unsigned long customerNumber,

                            unsigned long loanAmount) = 0;

};

Snippet 36: Sample C++ Interface

 

The resulting proxy class is:

 

class LoanServiceProxy : public ServiceProxy {

public:

   virtual bool approveLoan(unsigned long customerNumber,

                            unsigned long loanAmount) = 0;

};

Snippet 37: Proxy Class for Interface in Snippet 36

 

For each reference of a component, an SCA implementation MUST generate a service proxy derived from ServiceProxy that contains the operations of the reference’s interface definition. [CPP30002]

3.3 Accessing Services from non-SCA component implementationsComponent  Implementations

Non-SCA components can access component services by obtaining a DomainContextPtr from the SCA runtime and then following the same steps as a component implementation as described above.

 

The followingSnippet 38 shows a sample of how the DomainContext is used in non-SCA C++ code. 

 

#include "DomainContext.h"

#include "CustomerServiceProxy.h"

 

void externalFunction()

{

 

   unsigned long customerNumber = 1234;

 

   DomainContextPtr context = myImplGetDomain("http://example.com/mydomain");

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService)

      short rating = customerService->getCreditRating(customerNumber);

 

}

Snippet 38: Using DomianContext

 

No SCA metadata is specified for the client. E.g. no binding or policies are specified. Non-SCA clients cannot call services that use callbacks.

 

The SCA infrastructure decides which binding is used OR extended form of serviceURI is used:

·         componentName/serviceName/bindingName

 

The function myImplGetDomain() in Snippet 38 is an example of how a non-SCA client might get a DomainContextPtr and is not a function defined by this specification.  The specific mechanism for how an SCA runtime implementation returns a DomainContextPtr is not defined by this specification.

3.4 Calling Service Operations

The previous sectionsAccessing Services from Component Implementations and Accessing Services from non-SCA Component  Implementations show the various options for gettinghow to get access to a service. Once you have access to the service, calling an operation of the service is like calling a member function of a C++ class. via a ServicyProxy.

 

If you have access to a service whose interface is marked as remotable, then on calls to operations of that service you will experience remote semantics. Arguments and return are passed by-value and it is possible to get a ServiceUnavailableException, which is a ServiceRuntimeException.

3.5 Long Running Request-Response Operations

The Assembly Specification [ASSEMBLY] allows service interfaces or individual operations to be marked long-running using an @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent, with the meaning that the operation(s) might not complete in any specified time interval, even when the operations are request-response operations.  A client calling such an operation has to be prepared for any arbitrary delay between the time a request is made and the time the response is received.  To support this kind of operation three invocation styles are available: asynchronous – the client provides a response handler, polling – the client will poll the SCA runtime to determine if a response is available, and synchronous – the SCA runtime handles suspension of the main thread,  asynchronously receiving the response and resuming the main thread.  The details of each of these styles are provided in the following sections.

 

For a service operation with signature

<return type> <function name>(<parameters>);

the asynchronous invocation style includes a member function in the interface proxy class

<proxy_class>::<response_message_name>Response <function name>Async(

                                                           <in_parameters>);

Snippet 39: AsynchronousInvocation Member Function Format

 

where <response_message name>Response is the response class for the operation as defined by Response Class.  The client uses this member function to issue a request through the SCA runtime. The response is returned immediately, and can be used to access the response when it becomes available.

 

An SCA runtime MUST include an asynchronous invocation member function for every operation of a reference interface with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation or the reference as a whole. [CPP30003]

 

The followingSnippet 310 shows a sample proxy class interface providing an asynchronous API.

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

using namespace commonj::sdo;

 

 

class CustomerServiceProxy : public ServiceProxy {

public:

 

   // synchronous member function   

   virtual short getCreditRating(unsigned long customerNumber) = 0;

 

   // forward declare callback class

   class getCreditRatingCallback;

 

   // asynchronous response object

   class getCreditRatingResponse {

   public:

      // IOU/Future member functions

      virtual void cancel() = 0;

      virtual bool isCancelled() = 0;

      virtual bool isReady() = 0;

      virtual void setCallback(getCreditRatingCallbackPtr callback) = 0;

 

      virtual short getReturn() = 0;

   };  

 

   // asynchronous callback object

   class getCreditRatingCallback {

   public:

     virtual void invoke(getCreditRatingResponsePtr) = 0;

   };

 

   // asynchronous member function

   virtual getCreditRatingResponsePtr getCreditRatingAsync(unsigned long

         customerNumber) = 0;

};

 

The followingSnippet 310: Proxy with an Asynchronous API

 

Snippet 311 shows a sample of how the asynchronous invocation style is used in a C++ component implementation.

 

#include “ComponentContext.h”

#include “CustomerServiceProxy.h”

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void clientFunction()

{

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService) {

     getCreditRatingResponsePtr response =

         customerService->getCreditRatingAsync(1234);

 

     // ...

   }

 

}

 

Snippet 311: Using an Asynchronous API

 

Once a response object has been returned, the user can use the provided API in order to set a callback object to be invoked when the response is ready, to poll the variable waiting for the response to become available, or to block the current thread waiting for the response to become available.

3.5.1 Response Callback

If a callback is specified on a response object, that callback will be invoked when the response is received by the runtime. The following exampleSnippet 312 demonstrates creating a response object and setting it on a response instance:

 

#include "ComponentContext.h"

#include "CustomerServiceProxy.h"

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

class CreditRatingCallback :

      public CustomerServiceProxy::getCreditRatingCallback {

 

   virtual void invoke(getCreditRatingResponsePtr response) {

      try {

         short rating = response->getReturn();

      }

      catch (...) {

        // ...

      }

   }

};

 

void clientFunction()

{

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService) {

      CustomerServiceProxy::getCreditRatingResponsePtr response =

            customerService->getCreditRatingAsync(1234);

 

      CustomerServiceProxy::getCreditRatingCallbackPtr callback =

            new CreditRatingCallback();

 

      response->setCallback(callback);

 

      // ...

   }

}

Snippet 312: Using a Response Object

3.5.2 Response Polling

A client can poll a response object in order to determine if a response has been received.

 

#include "ComponentContext.h"

#include "CustomerServiceProxy.h"

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void clientFunction()

{

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService) {

      CustomerServiceProxy::getCreditRatingResponsePtr response =

            customerService->getCreditRatingAsync(1234);

  

      while (!response->isReady()) {

         // do something else

      }

 

      // The response is ready and can be accessed without blocking.

      try {

         short rating = response->getReturn();

      }

      catch (...) {

         // ...

      }

   }

}

Snippet 313: Polling a Response Object

3.5.3 Synchronous Response Access

If a client chooses to block until a response becomes available, they can attempt to access a part of the response object. If the response has not been received, the call will block until the response is available.  Once the response is received and the response object is populated, the call will return.

 

#include "ComponentContext.h"

#include "CustomerServiceProxy.h"

 

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void clientFunction()

{

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("customerService");

   CustomerServiceProxyPtr customerService =

         dynamicCast<CustomerServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (customerService) {

      CustomerServiceProxy::getCreditRatingResponsePtr response =

            customerService->getCreditRatingAsync(1234);

 

      // The response is ready and can be accessed without blocking.

      try {

         short rating = response->getReturn();

      }

      catch (...) {

         // ...

      }

   }

}

 

Snippet 314: Blocking on a Response Object

3.5.4 Response Class

The proxy for an interface includes a response class for a response message type returned by an operation that can be invoked asynchronously.  A response class presents the following interface to the client component.

 

class <response_message_name>Response {

public:

   virtual <response_message_type> getReturn() const = 0;

   virtual void setCallback(<response_message_name>CallbackPtr callback) = 0;

   virtual boolean isReady() const = 0;

   virtual void cancel() const = 0;

   virtual boolean isCancelled() const = 0;

};

Snippet 315: AsynchronouseInvocation Response Class Definition

 

An SCA runtime MUST include a response class for every response message of a reference interface that can be returned by an operation of the interface with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation of the reference as a whole. [CPP30004]

3.5.4.1 getReturn

A C++ component implementation uses getReturn() to retrieve the response data for an asynchronous invocation.

Precondition

C++ component instance is running and has an outstanding asynchronous call

Input Parameter

 

 

Return

Response data for the operation.

Throws

Any exceptions defined for the operation.

Post Condition

4      Asynchronous Programming

Asynchronous programming of a service is where a client invokes a service and carries on executing without waiting for the service to execute.  Typically, the invoked service executes at some later time.  Output from the invoked service, if any, is fed back to the client through a separate mechanism, since no output is available at the point where the service is invoked. This is in contrast to the call-and-return style of synchronous programming, where the invoked service executes and returns any output to the client before the client continues.  The SCA asynchronous programming model consists of support for non-blocking operation calls and callbacks.  Each of these topics is discussed in the following sections.

4.1 Non-blocking Calls

Non-blocking calls represent the simplest form of asynchronous programming, where the client of the service invokes the service and continues processing immediately, without waiting for the service to execute.

 

Any member function that returns void, has only by-value parameters and has no declared exceptions can be marked with the @oneWay=”true” attribute in the interface definition of the service. An operation marked as oneWay is considered non-blocking and the SCA runtime MAY use a binding that buffers the requests to the member function and sends them at some time after they are made. [CPP40001]

 

The following snippetSnippet 41 shows the component type for a service with the reportEvent() member fucntion declared as a one-way operation:

 

<componentType xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200903200912">

   <service name="LoanService">

      <interface.cpp header="LoanService.h">

         <function name="reportEvent" oneWay="true" />

      </interface.cpp>

   </service>

</componentType>

Snippet 41: ComponentType with oneWay Member Function

 

SCA does not currently define a mechanism for making non-blocking calls to methods that return values or are declared to throw exceptions.  It is considered to be a best practice that service designers define one-way member function as often as possible, in order to give the greatest degree of binding flexibility to deployers.

4.2 Callbacks

Callback services are used by bidirectional services as defined in the Assembly Specification [ASSEMBLY].

 

A callback interface is declared by the @callbackHeader and @callbackClass attributes in the interface definition of the service. The following snippetSnippet 42 shows the component type for a service MyService with the interface defined in MyService.h and the interface for callbacks defined in MyServiceCallback.h,

 

<componentType xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200903200912" >

   <service name="MyService">

      <interface.cpp header="MyService.h"

         callbackHeader="MyServiceCallback.h"/>

   </service>

</componentType>

Snippet 42: ComponentType with a Callback Interface

4.2.1 Using Callbacks

Bidirectional interfaces and callbacks are used when a simple request/response pattern isn’t sufficient to capture the business semantics of a service interaction.  Callbacks are well suited for cases when a service request can result in multiple responses or new requests from the service back to the client, or where the service might respond to the client some time after the original request has completed.

 

The following example showsSnippet 43Snippet 45 show a scenario in which bidirectional interfaces and callbacks could be used.  A client requests a quotation from a supplier.  To process the enquiry and return the quotation, some suppliers might need additional information from the client.  The client does not know which additional items of information will be needed by different suppliers.  This interaction can be modeled as a bidirectional interface with callback requests to obtain the additional information.

 

class Quotation {

public:

   virtual double requestQuotation(std::string productCode,

                                   unsigned int quantity) = 0;

};

 

class QuotationCallback {

public:

   virtual std::string getState() = 0;

   virtual std::string getZipCode() = 0;

   virtual std::string getCreditRating() = 0;

};

Snippet 43: C++ Interface with a Callback Interface

 

In this exampleSnippet 43, the requestQuotation operation requests a quotation to supply a given quantity of a specified product.  The QuotationCallBack interface provides a number of operations that the supplier can use to obtain additional information about the client making the request.  For example, some suppliers might quote different prices based on the state or the zip code to which the order will be shipped, and some suppliers might quote a lower price if the ordering company has a good credit rating.  Other suppliers might quote a standard price without requesting any additional information from the client.

 

The following code snippetSnippet 44 illustrates a possible implementation of the example service.

 

#include "QuotationImpl.h"

#include "QuotationCallbackProxy.h"

#include "ComponentContext.h"

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

double QuotationImpl::requestQuotation(std::string productCode,

                                        unsigned int quantity) {

   double price = getPrice(productQuote, quantity);

   double discount = 0;

 

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

   ServiceReferencePtr serviceRef = context->getSelfReference();

   ServiceProxyPtr callback = serviceRef->getCallback();

   QuotationCallbackQuotationCallbackProxyPtr quotationCallback =

         dynamicCast<QuotationCallbackProxy>(callback);

 

   if (quotationCallback) {

      if (quantity > 1000 && callback->getState().compare(“FL”) == 0)

         discount = 0.05;

      if (quantity > 10000 && callback->getCreditRating().data() == ‘A’)

         discount += 0.05;

   }

   return price * (1-discount);

}

Snippet 44: Implementation of Forward Service with Interface in Snippet 43

 

The code snippet belowSnippet 45 is taken from the client of this example service.  The client’s service implementation class implements the member functions of the QuotationCallback interface as well as those of its own service interface ClientService.

 

#include "QuotationCallback.h"

#include "QuotationServiceProxy.h"

#include "ComponentContext.h"

using namespace oasis::sca;

 

void ClientImpl:: aClientFunction() {

   ComponentContextPtr context = ComponentContext::getCurrent();

 

   ServiceProxyPtr service = context->getService("quotationService");

   QuotationServiceProxyPtr quotationService =

         dynamicCast<QuotationServiceProxy>(service);

 

   if (quotationService)

      quotationService->requestQuotation(“AB123”, 2000);

}

 

std::string QuotationCallbackImpl::getState() {

   return “TX”;

}

std::string QuotationCallbackImpl::getZipCode() {

   return “78746”;

}

std::string QuotationCallbackImpl::getCreditRating() {

   return “AA”;

}

Snippet 45: Implementation of Callback Interface in Snippet 43

 

For each service of a component that includes a bidirectional interface, an SCA implementation MUST generate a service proxy derived from ServiceProxy  that contains the operations of the reference’s callback interface definition. [CPP40002]

 

If a service of a component that has a callback interface contains operations with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation of the reference as a whole, an SCA implementation MUST include asynchronous invocation member functions and response classes as described in Long Running Request-Response Operations. [CPP40003]

 

In the example the callback is stateless, i.e., the callback requests do not need any information relating to the original service request.  For a callback that needs information relating to the original service request (a stateful callback), this information can be passed to the client by the service provider as parameters on the callback request.

4.2.2 Callback Instance Management

Instance management for callback requests received by the client of the bidirectional service is handled in the same way as instance management for regular service requests.  If the client implementation has STATELESSstateless scope, the callback is dispatched using a newly initialized instance.  If the client implementation has COMPOSITEcomposite scope, the callback is dispatched using the same shared instance that is used to dispatch regular service requests.

As described in Using Callbacks, a stateful callback can obtain information relating to the original service request from parameters on the callback request.  Alternatively, a composite-scoped client could store information relating to the original request as instance data and retrieve it when the callback request is received.  These approaches could be combined by using a key passed on the callback request (e.g., an order ID) to retrieve information that was stored in a composite-scoped instance by the client code that made the original request.

4.2.3 Implementing Multiple Bidirectional Interfaces

Since it is possible for a single class to implement multiple services, it is also possible for callbacks to be defined for each of the services that it implements. To access the callbacks the ServiceReference::getCallback(serviceName) member function is used, passing in the name of the service for which the callback is to be obtained.

5      Error Handling

Clients calling service operations will experience business exceptions, and SCA runtime exceptions.

 

Business exceptions are raised by the implementation of the called service operation. It is expected that these will be caught by client invoking the operation on the service.

 

SCA runtime exceptions are raised by the SCA runtime and signal problems in the management of the execution of components, and in the interaction with remote services. Currently the following SCA runtime exceptions are defined are:

·         SCAException – defines a root exception type from which all SCA defined exceptions derive.

      SCANullPointerException – signals that code attempted to dereference a null pointer from a RefCountingPointer object.

      ServiceRuntimeException - signals problems in the management of the execution of SCA components.

·         ServiceUnavailableException – signals problems in the interaction with remote services.  This extends ServiceRuntimeException.  These are exceptions that could be transient, so retrying is appropriate.  Any exception that is a ServiceRuntimeException that is not a ServiceUnavailableException is unlikely to be resolved by retrying the operation, since it most likely requires human intervention.

·         MultipleServicesException – signals that a member function expecting identification of a single service is called where there are multiple services defined. Thrown by ComponentContext::getService(), ComponentContext::getSelfReference() and ComponentContext::getServiceReference().

6      C++ API

All the C++ interfaces are found in the namespace oasis::sca, which has been omitted from the following descriptionsdefinitions for clarity.

6.1 Reference Counting Pointers

These are a derived version of the familiar smart-pointer.  The pointer class holds a real (dumb) pointer to the object.  If the reference counting pointer is copied, then a duplicate pointer is returned with the same real pointer.  A reference count within the object is incremented for each copy of the pointer, so only when all pointers go out of scope will the object be freed.

 

Reference counting pointers in SCA have the same name as the type they are pointing to, with a suffix of Ptr. (E.g. ComponentContextPtr, ServiceReferencePtr).

 

RefCountingPointer defines member functions with raw pointer like semantics.  This includes defining operators for dereferencing the pointer (*, ->), as well as operators for determining the validity of the pointer.

 

template <typename T>

class RefCountingPointer {

public:

   T& operator* () const;

   T* operator-> () const;

   operator void* () const;

   bool operator! () const;

};

 

template <typename T, typename U>

RefCountingPointer<T> constCast(RefCountingPointer<U> other);

 

template <typename T, typename U>

RefCountingPointer<T> dynamicCast(RefCountingPointer<U> other);

 

template <typename T, typename U>

RefCountingPointer<T> reinterpretCast(RefCountingPointer<U> other);

 

template <typename T, typename U>

RefCountingPointer<T> staticCast(RefCountingPointer<U> other);

 

The RefCountingPointer class has the following member functions:

7      C++ Contributions

Contributions are defined in the Assembly specification [ASSEMBLY]. C++ contributions are typically, but not necessarily contained in .zip files.  In addition to SCDL and potentially WSDL artifacts, C++ contributions include binary executable files, componentType files and potentially C++ interface headers.  No additional discussion is needed for header files, but there are some additional considerations for executable and componentType files discussed in the following sections.

7.1 Executable files

Executable files containing the C++ implementations for a contribution can be contained in the contribution, contained in another contribution or external to any contribution.  In some cases, it could be desirable to have contributions share an executable.  In other cases, an implementation deployment policy might dictate that executables are placed in specific directories in a file system. 

7.1.1 Executable in contribution

When the executable file containing a C++ implementation is in the same contribution, the @path attribute of the implementation.cpp element is used to specify the location of the executable.  The specific location of an executable within a contribution is not defined by this specification.

 

The followingSnippet 71 shows a contribution containing a DLL.

 

META-INF/

sca-contribution.xml

bin/

   autoinsurance.dll

AutoInsurance/

   AutoInsurance.composite

   AutoInsuranceService/

          AutoInsurance.h

          AutoInsuranceImpl.componentType

   include/

          Customers.h

          Underwriting.h

          RateUtils.h

Snippet 71: Contribution Containing a DLL

 

The SCDL for the AutoInsuranceService component of Snippet 71 is:

 

<component name="AutoInsuranceService">

   <implementation.cpp library="autoinsurance" path="bin/"

      class="AutoInsuranceImpl” />

</component>

Snippet 72: Component Definition Using Implementation in a Common DLL

7.1.2 Executable shared with other contribution(s) (Export)

If a contribution contains an executable that also implements C++ components found in other contributions, the contribution has to export the executable.  An executable in a contribution is made visible to other contributions by adding an export.cpp element to the contribution definition as shown in the following snippetSnippet 73.

 

<contribution>

   <deployable composite="myNS:RateUtilities"

   <export.cpp name="contribNS:rates" >

</contribution>

Snippet 73: Exporting a Contribution

 

It is also possible to export only a subtree of a contribution.  IfFor a contribution contains the following:

 

META-INF/

sca-contribution.xml

bin/

   rates.dll

RateUtilities/

   RateUtilities.composite

   RateUtilitiesService/

          RateUtils.h

          RateUtilsImpl.componentType

Snippet 74: Contribution with a Subdirectory to be Shared

 

An export of the form:

 

<contribution>

   <deployable composite="myNS:RateUtilities"

   <export.cpp name="contribNS:ratesbin" path="bin/" >

</contribution>

Snippet 75: Exporting a Subdirectory of a Contribution

 

only makes the contents of the bin directory visible to other contributions.  By placing all of the executable files of a contribution in a single directory and exporting only that directory, the amount of information available to a contribution that uses the exported executable files is limited.  This is considered a best practice.

7.1.3 Executable outside of contribution (Import)

When the executable that implements a C++ component is located outside of a contribution, the contribution MUSThas to import the executable.  If the executable is located in another contribution, the import.cpp element of the contribution definition uses a @location attribute that identifies the name of the export as defined in the contribution that defined the export as shown in the following snippetSnippet 76.

 

<contribution>

   <deployable composite="myNS:Underwriting"

Snippet 76: Contribution with an Import

 

The SCDL for the UnderwritingService component of Snippet 76 is:

 

<component name="UnderwritingService">

   <implementation.cpp library="rates" path="rates:bin/"

      class="UnderwritingImpl” />

</component>

Snippet 77: Component Definition Using Implementation in an External DLL

 

If the executable is located in the file system, the @location attribute identifies the location in the files system used as the root of the import as shown in this snippetSnippet 78.

Snippet 78: Component Definition Using Implementation in a File System

7.2 componentType files

As stated in section 2.5Component Type and Component, each component implemented in C++ has a corresponding componentType file.  This componentType file is, by default, located in the root directory of the composite containing the component or a subdirectory of the composite root with the name <implementation class>.componentType, as shown in the following exampleSnippet 79.

 

META-INF/

sca-contribution.xml

bin/

   autoinsurance.dll

AutoInsurance/

   AutoInsurance.composite

   AutoInsuranceService/

          AutoInsurance.h

          AutoInsuranceImpl.componentType

Snippet 79: Contribution with ComponentType

 

The SCDL for the AutoInsuranceService component of Snippet 79 is:

 

<component name="AutoInsuranceService">

   <implementation.cpp library="autoinsurance" path="bin/"

      class="AutoInsuranceImpl” />

</component>

Snippet 710: Component Definition with Local ComponentType

 

Since there is a one-to-one correspondence between implementations and componentTypes, when an implementation is shared between contributions, it is desirable to also share the componentType file.  ComponentType files can be exported and imported in the same manner as executable files.  The location of a .componentType file can be specified using the @componentType attribute of the implementation.cpp element.

 

<component name="UnderwritingService">

   <implementation.cpp library="rates" path="rates:bin/"

      class="UnderwritingImpl” componentType="rates:types/UnderwritingImpl" />

</component>

Snippet 712: Pseudo-schema for C++ Export Element

 

The export.cpp element has the following attributes:

·         name : QName (1..1) name of the export. The@name attribute of a <export.cpp/> element MUST be unique amongst the <export.cpp/> elements in a domain. [CPP70001]

·         path : string (0..1)  – path of the exported executable relative to the root of the contribution.  If not present, the entire contribution is exported.

7.3.2 Import.cpp

The following snippetSnippet 713 shows the pseudo-schema for the C++ import element used to reference an executable or componentType file that is outside of a contribution.

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>

      name="QName" location="string" >

Snippet 713: Pseudo-schema for C++ Import Element

 

The import.cpp element has the following attributes:

·         name : QName (1..1) name of the import. The@name attribute of a <import.cpp/> child element of a <contribution/> MUST be unique amongst the <import.cpp/> elements in of that contribution. [CPP70002]

·         location : string (1..1)  – either the QName of a export or a file system location.  If the value does not match an export name it is taken as an absolute file system path.

8      C++ Interfaces

A service interface can be defined by a C++ class which has only pure virtual public member functions. The class might additionally have private or protected member functions, but these are not part of the service interface.

When mapping a C++ interface to WSDL or when comparing two C++ interfaces for compatibility, as defined by the Assembly specification [ASSEMBLY], it is necessary for an SCA implementation to determine the signature (return type, name, and the names and types of the parameters) of every member function of the class defining the service interface. An SCA implementation MUST translate a class to tokens as part of conversion to WSDL or compatibility testing. [CPP80001] Macros and typedefs in member function declarations might lead to portability problems. Complete member function declarations within a macro are discouraged. The processing of typedefs needs to be aware of the types that impact mapping to WSDL (see Table 91 and Table 92)

8.1 Types Supported in Service Interfaces

A service interface can support a restricted set of the types available to a C++ programmer. This section summarizes the valid types that can be used.

1.1             Local service

The return type and types of the parameters of a member function of a local service interface MUST be one of:

·            Any of the C++ primitive types (for example, int, short, char). In this case the data will be passed by value as is normal for C++.

·            Pointers to any of the C++ primitive types (for example, int *, short *, char *).

·            The const keyword can be used for any pointer to a C++ primitive type (for example const char *). If this is used on a parameter then the destination can not change the value.

·            C++ class. The class will be passed by value as is normal for C++.

·            Pointer to a C++ class. A pointer will be passed to the destination which can then modify the original contents.

·            DataObjectPtr. An SDO pointer. This will be passed by reference.

·            References to C++ classes (passed by reference). [CPP80001]

1.1             Remotable service

Not all service interfaces support the complete set of the types available in C++.

8.1.1 Local Service

Any fundamental or compound type defined by C++ can be used in the interface of a local service.

8.1.2 Remotable Service

For a remotable service being called by another service the data exchange semantics is by-value. The return type and types of the parameters of a member function of a remotable service interface MUST be one of:

·         Any of the C++ types specified in Simple Content Binding. These types may be passed by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer. Unless the member function and client indicate that they allow by-reference semantics (see AllowsPassByReference), a copy will be explicitly created by the runtime for any parameters passed by-reference or by-pointer.

·         An SDO DataObjectPtr instance. This type may be passed by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer. Unless the member function and client indicate that they allow by-reference semantics (see AllowsPassByReference), a deep-copy of the DataObjectPtr will be created by the runtime for any parameters passed by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer.  When by-reference semantics are allowed, the DataObjectPtr itself will be passed. [CPP80002]

8.2 Unless the interface is marked as allowing pass by reference semantics, the behavior of the following are not defined:Header Files

·            Pointers.

·            References.

1          Restrictions on C++ header files

A C++ header file that is used to describe an interface has some restrictions.

A C++ header file used to define an interface MUST declare at least one class with:

·         At least one public member function.

        All public member functions are pure virtual. [CPP90001]

 

A C++ header file used to define an interface MUST NOT use the following constructs:

·            Macros

·            Inline member functions

·         Friend classes [CPP90002CPP80003]

9      WSDL to C++ and C++ to WSDL Mapping

The SCA Client and Implementation Model for C++ applies the WSDL to Java and Java to WSDL mapping rules (augmented for C++) as defined by the JAX-WS specification [JAXWS21] for generating remotable C++ interfaces from WSDL portTypes and vice versa.  Use of the JAX-WS specification as a guideline for WSDL to C++ and C++ to WSDL mappings does not imply that any support for the Java language is mandated by this specification.

 

For the purposes of the Java-C++ to- WSDL mapping algorithm, the interface is treated as if it had a @WebService annotation on the class, even if it doesn't. For the WSDL- to-Java  C++ mapping, the generated @WebService annotation implies that the interface is @Remotable.

 

For the mapping from C++ types to XML schema types SCA supports the SDO 2.1 [SDO21][SDO21] mapping.  A detailed mapping of C++ to WSDL types and WSDL to C++ types is covered in section SDO Data Binding.

 

The following limitations applyItems in the JAX-WS WSDL to Java and Java to WSDL mapping that are not supported:

·         JAX-WS style external binding files are not supported. (See JAX-WS Sec. 2)

·         MIME binding is not supported. (See JAX-WS Sec. 2.1.1)

·         Holder classes are not supported. (See JAX-WS Sec. 2.3.3)

·         Asynchronous mapping is not supported. (See JAX-WS Sec. 2.3.4)

·         Generation of Service classes from WSDL is not supported. (See JAX-WS Sec. 2.7)

·         Generation of WSDL from Service implementation classes  is not supported (See JAX-WS Sec. 3.3)

·         Templates are not supported when converting from C++ to WSDL (See JAX-WS Sec. 3.9)

 

The following generalGeneral rules apply to for the application of JAX-WS to C++.

·         References to Java are considered references to C++.

·         References to Java classes are considered references to C++ classes.

·         References to Java methods are considered references to C++ member functions.

·         References to Java interfaces are considered references to C++ classes which only define pure virtual member functions.

·            For the purposes of the C++-to-WSDL mapping algorithm, a C++ class with only pure-virtual functions and no state is treated as if it had a @WebService annotation on the class.  All default values are assumed for the @WebService annotation.

 

Major divergences from JAX-WS:

·         Algorithms for converting WSDL namespaces to C++ namespaces (and vice-versa).

·         Mapping of WSDL faults to C++ exceptions and vice-versa.

·         Managing of data bindings.

9.1 Augmentations for WSDL to C++ Mapping

An SCA implementation MUST map a WSDL portType to a remotable C++ interface definition. [CPP100009]

9.1.1 Mapping WSDL targetNamespace to a C++ namespace

Since C++ does not define a standard convention for the use of namespaces, the SCA specification does not define an implicit mapping of WSDL targetNamespaces to C++ namespaces. A WSDL file might define a namespace using the <sca:namespace> WSDL extension, otherwise all C++ classes MUST be placed in a default namespace as determined by the implementation.  Implementations SHOULD provide a mechanism for overriding the default namespace. [CPP100001]

9.1.2 Mapping WSDL Faults to C++ Exceptions

WSDL operations that specify one or more <wsdl:fault> elements will produce a C++ member function that is annotated with an @WebThrows annotation listing a C++ exception class associated with each <wsdl:fault>.

 

The C++ exception class associated with a fault will be generated based on the message that is associated with the <wsdl:fault> element, and in particular with the global element that the wsd:fault/wsdl:message/@part indicates.

 

<FaultException>(const char* message, const <FaultInfo>& faultInfo); 

<FaultInfo> getFaultInfo() const;

Snippet 91: Fault Exception Class Member Functions

 

Where <FaultException> is the name of the generated exception class, and where <FaultInfo> is the name of the C++ type representing the fault’s global element type.

9.1.2.1 Multiple Fault References

If multiple operations within the same portType indicate that they throw faults that reference the same global element, an SCA implementation MUST generate a single C++ exception class with each C++ member function referencing this class in its @WebThrows annotation. [CPP100002]

9.1.3 Mapping of in, out, in/out parts to C++ member function parameters

C++ diverges from the JAX-WS specification in it’s handling of some parameter types, especially around how passing of out and in/out parameters are handled in the context of C++’s various pass-by styles.  The following outlines an updated mapping for use with C++.

·         For unwrapped messages, an SCA implementation MUST map:

      in - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by const-reference.

      out - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by reference, or to the member function return type, returned by-value.

      in/out - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by reference. [CPP100003]

 

·         For wrapped messages, an SCA implementation MUST map:

      in - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by const-reference.

      out - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by reference, or to the member function return type, returned by-value.

      in/out - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by reference. [CPP100004]

 

9.2 Augmentations for C++ to WSDL Mapping

Where annotations are discusses as a means for an application to control the mapping to WSDL, an implementation-specific means of controlling the mapping can be used instead.

An SCA implementation MUST map a C++ interface definition to WSDL as if it has a @WebService annotation with all default values on the class. [CPP100010]

An application can customize the name of the portType and port using the @WebService annotation.

9.2.1 Mapping C++ namespaces to WSDL namespaces

Since C++ does not define a standard convention for the use of namespaces, the SCA specification does not define an implicit mapping of C++ namespaces to WSDL namespace URIs.  The default targetNamespace is defined by the implementation. An SCA implementation SHOULD provide a mechanism for overriding the default targetNamespace. [CPP100005]

9.2.2 Parameter and return type classification

The classification of parameters and return types in C++ are determined based on how the value is passed into the function.

 

An SCA implementation MUST map a method’s return type as an out parameter, a parameter passed by-reference or by-pointer as an in/out parameter, and all other parameters, including those passed by-const-reference as in parameters. [CPP100006]

 

An application can customize parameter classification using the @WebParam annotation.

9.2.3 C++ to WSDL Type Conversion

C++ types are mapped to WSDL and schema types based on the mapping described in Section Simple Content Binding.

9.2.4 Service-specific Exceptions

C++ classes that define a web service interface can indicate which faults they might throw using the @WebThrows annotation. @WebThrows lists the names of each C++ class that might be thrown as a fault from a particular member function. An SCA implementation MUST ensure each class that is referenced from an @WebThrows annotation MUST itself have a @WebFault annotation that associates the fault with a particular global element that will be associated with the fault message. [CPP100007]By default, no exceptions are mapped to operation faults.

9.3 SDO Data Binding

9.3.1 Simple Content Binding

The translation of XSD simple content types to C++ types follows the convention defined in the SDO specification.  The following tableTable 91 summarizes that mapping as it applies to SCA services.

Table 292: C++ type to XSD type mapping

 

The C++ standard does not define value ranges for integer types so it is possible that on a platform parameters or return values could have values that are out of range for the default XSD schema type. In these circumstances, the mapping would need to be customized, using @WebParam or @WebResult if supported, or some other implementation-specific mechanism.

 

An SCA implementation MUST map simple types as defined in Table 91 and Table 92 by default. [CPP100008]

9.3.2 Complex Content Binding

Any XSD complex types are mapped to an instance of an SDO DataObject.

A    C++ SCA Annotations

To allow developers to define SCA related information directly in source files, without having to separately author SCDL files, a set of annotations is defined.  If annotations are supported by an implementation, the annotations defined here MUST be supported and MUST be mapped to SCDL as described. The SCA runtime MUST only process the SCDL files and not the annotations. [CPPA0001]

 

The annotations are defined as C++ comments in interface and implementation header files, for example:

 

// @Scope("stateless")

Snippet A1: Example Annotation

A.1 Application of Annotations to C++ Program Elements

In general an annotation immediately precedes the program element it applies to.  If multiple annotations apply to a program element, all of the annotations SHOULD be in the same comment block. [CPPA0002]

·         Class

The annotation immediately precedes the class.

Example:

// @Scope("composite")

class LoanServiceImpl : public LoanService {

   …

};

Snippet A2: Example Class Annotation

·         Member function

The annotation immediately precedes the member function.

Example:

class LoanService

{

public:

// @OneWay

   virtual void reportEvent(int eventId) = 0;

   …

};

Snippet A3: Example Member Function Annotation

·         Data Member

The annotation immediately precedes the data member.

Example:

// @Property(name="loanType", type="xsd:int")

long loanType;

Snippet A4: Example Data Member Annotation

 

Annotations follow normal inheritance rules.  An annotation on a base class or any element of a base class applies to any classes derived from the base class.

A.2 Interface Header Annotations

This section lists the annotations that can be used in the header file that defines a service interface.

A.2.1 @Interface

Annotation used to indicate a class defines an interface when multiple classes exist in a header file. An SCA implementation MUST treat a class with an @WebService annotation specified as if an @Interface annotation was specified. [CPPA0003]

 

 

Corresponds to: @class attribute of an interface.cpp element.

 

Format:

// @Interface

 

Snippet A5: @Interface Annotation Format

Applies to: Class

 

Example:

Interface header:

// @Interface

class LoanService {

...

};

 

Service definition:

<service name="LoanService">

   <interface.cpp header="LoanService.h" class="LoanService" />

</service>

Snippet A6: Example of @Interface Annotation

A.2.2 @Remotable

Annotation on service interface class to indicate that a service is remotable.  and implies an @Interface annotation applies as well. An SCA implementation MUST treat a class with an @WebService annotation specified as if a @Remotable annotation was specified. [CPPA0003]

 

Corresponds to: @remotable=”true” attribute of an interface.cpp element.

 

Format:

// @Remotable

Snippet A7: @Remotable Annotation Format

The default is false (not remotable).

 

Applies to: Class

 

Example:

Interface header:

// @Remotable

class LoanService {

...

};

 

Service definition:

<service name="LoanService">

   <interface.cpp header="LoanService.h" remotable="true" />

</service>

Snippet A8: Example of @Remotable Annotation

A.2.3 @Callback

Annotation on a service interface class to specify the callback interface.

 

Corresponds to: @callbackHeader and @callbackClass attributes of an interface.cpp element.

 

Format:

// @Callback(header="headerName", class="className")

Snippet A9: @Callback Annotation Format

where

·         headerName : (1..1)  is the name of the header defining the callback service interface.

·         className : (0..1) is the name of the class for the callback interface.

 

Applies to: Class

 

Example:

Interface header:

// @Callback(header="MyServiceCallback.h", class="MyServiceCallback")

class MyService {

public:

   virtual void someFunction( unsigned int arg ) = 0;

};

 

Service definition:

<service name="MyService">

   <interface.cpp header="MyService.h"

          callbackHeader="MyServiceCallback.h"

          callbackClass="MyServiceCallback"  />

</service>

Snippet A10: Example of @Callback Annotation

A.2.4 @OneWay

Annotation on a servicean interface member function to indicate the member function is one way. The @OneWay annotation also affects the representation of a service in WSDL, see @OneWay.

 

Corresponds to: @oneWay=”true” attribute of function element of an interface.cpp element.

 

Format:

// @OneWay

Snippet A11: @OneWay Annotation Format

The default is false (not OneWay).

 

Applies to: Member function

 

Example:

Interface header:

class LoanService

{

public:

// @OneWay

   virtual void reportEvent(int eventId) = 0;

};

 

Service definition:

<service name="LoanService">

   <interface.cpp header="LoanService.h">

          <function name="reportEvent" oneWay="true" />

   </interface.cpp>

</service>

Snippet A12: Example of @OneWay Annotation

A.2.5 @Function

Annotation on a interface member function to modify its representation in an SCA interface. An SCA implementation MUST treat a member function with a @WebFunction annotation specified as if @Function was specified with the operationName value of the @WebFunction annotation used as the name value of the @Function annotation and the exclude value of the @WebFunction annotation used as the exclude valued of the @Function annotation. [CPPA0004]

Corresponds to: function or callbackFunction element of an interface.cpp element. If the class the function is a member of is being processed because it was identified via either a combination of interface.cpp/@callbackHeader and interface.cpp/@callbackClass or a @Callback annotation, then the @Function annotation corresponds to a callbackFunction element, otherwise it corresponds to a function element.

Format:

// @Function(name="operationName", exclude="true")

Snippet A13: @Function Annotation Format

where

·         name : NCName (0..1) –  specifies the name of the operation. The default operation name is the function name.

B    C++ SCA Policy Annotations

SCA provides facilities for the attachment of policy-related metadata to SCA assemblies, which influence how implementations, services and references behave at runtime.  The policy facilities are described in [POLICY].  In particular, the facilities include Intents and Policy Sets, where intents express abstract, high-level policy requirements and policy sets express low-level detailed concrete policies.

 

Policy metadata can be added to SCA assemblies through the means of declarative statements placed into Composite documents and into Component Type documents.  These annotations are completely independent of implementation code, allowing policy to be applied during the assembly and deployment phases of application development.

 

However, it can be useful and more natural to attach policy metadata directly to the code of implementations.  This is particularly important where the policies concerned are relied on by the code itself.  An example of this from the Security domain is where the implementation code expects to run under a specific security Role and where any service operations invoked on the implementation have to be authorized to ensure that the client has the correct rights to use the operations concerned.  By annotating the code with appropriate policy metadata, the developer can rest assured that this metadata is not lost or forgotten during the assembly and deployment phases.

 

The SCA C++ policy annotations provide the capability for the developer to attach policy information to C++ implementation code.  The annotations concerned first provide both general facilities for attaching SCA Intents and Policy Sets to C++ code.  Secondly, there are further specific  and annotations that deal with particular specific policy intents. Policy annotation can be used in header files for certain policy domains such as Securityservice interfaces or implementations.

B.1 General Intent Annotations

SCA provides the annotation @Requires for the attachment of any intent to a C++ class, to a C++ interface or to elements within classes and interfaces such as member functions and data members.

 

The @Requires annotation can attach one or multiple intents in a single statement.

 

 Each intent is expressed as a string.  Intents are XML QNames, which consist of a Namespace URI followed by the name of the Intent. The precise form used is as follows::

 

"{" + Namespace URI + "}" + intentname

Snippet B1: Intent Format

 

Intents can be qualified, in which case the string consists of the base intent name, followed by a ".", followed by the name of the qualifier.  There can also be multiple levels of qualification. 

 

This representation is quite verbose, so we expect that reusable constants will be defined for the namespace part of this string, as well as for each intent that is used by C++ code.  SCA defines constants for intents such as the following:

 

// @Define SCA_PREFIX "{http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200903200912}"

// @Define CONFIDENTIALITY SCA_PREFIX ## "confidentiality"

// @Define CONFIDENTIALITY_MESSAGE CONFIDENTIALITY ## ".message"

Snippet B2: Example Intent Constants

 

Notice that, by convention, qualified intents include the qualifier as part of the name of the constant, separated by an underscore.  These intent constants are defined in the file that defines an annotation for the intent (annotations for intents, and the formal definition of these constants, are covered in a following section).

 

Multiple intents (qualified or not) are expressed as separate strings within an array declaration.

 

Corresponds to: @requires attribute of a service, reference, operationan interface.cpp, inplemenation.cpp, function or propertycallbackFunction element.

 

Format:

// @Requires("qualifiedIntent" | {"qualifiedIntent" [, "qualifiedIntent"]})

where

qualifiedIntent ::= QName | QName.qualifier | QName.qualifier1.qualifier2

 

Snippet B3: @Requires Annotation Format

Applies to: Class, Member Function

 

Examples:

Attaching the intents "confidentiality.message" and "integrity.message".

// @Requires({CONFIDENTIALITY_MESSAGE, INTEGRITY_MESSAGE})

Snippet B4: Example @Requires Annotation

 

A reference requiring support for confidentiality:

class Foo {

   …

// @Requires(CONFIDENTIALITY)

// @Reference(interfaceHeader="SetBar.h")

   void setBar(Bar* bar);

   …

}

Snippet B5: @Requires Annotation applied with an @Reference Annotation

 

Users can also choose to only use constants for the namespace part of the QName, so that they can add new intents without having to define new constants.  In that case, this definition would instead look like this:

 

class Foo {

   …

// @Requires(SCA_PREFIX "confidentiality ")

// @Reference(interfaceHeader="SetBar.h")

   void setBar(Bar* bar);

   …

}

Snippet B6: @Requires Annotation Using Mixed Constants and Literals

B.2 Specific Intent Annotations

In addition to the general intent annotation supplied by the @Requires annotation described above, there are C++ annotations that correspond to some specific policy intents. 

 

The general form of these specific intent annotations is an annotation with a name derived from the name of the intent itself.  If the intent is a qualified intent, qualifiers are supplied as an attribute to the annotation in the form of a string or an array of strings.

 

For example, the SCA confidentiality intent described in General Intent Annotations using the @Requires(CONFIDENTIALITY) intent can also be specified with the specific @Confidentiality intent annotation.  The specific intent annotation for the "integrity" security intent is:

 

// @Integrity

Snippet B7: Example Specific Intent Annotation

 

Corresponds to: @requires=”<Intent>” attribute of a service, reference, operationan interface.cpp, implementation,cpp, function  or propertycallbackFunction element.

 

Format:

// @<Intent>[(qualifiers)]

where Intent is an NCName that denotes a particular type of intent.

Intent ::= NCName

qualifiers ::= "qualifier " | {"qualifier" [, "qualifier"] }

qualifier ::= NCName | NCName/qualifier

 

Snippet B8: @<Intent> Annotation Format

Applies to: Class, Member Function – but see specific intents for restrictions

 

Example:

// @ClientAuthentication( {“message”, “transport”} )

Snippet B9: Example @<Intent> Annotation

 

This annotation attaches the pair of qualified intents: authentication.message and authentication.transport (the sca: namespace is assumed in both of these cases – "http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/ns/sca/200903").200912").

 

The Policy Framework [POLICY] defines a number of intents and qualifiers.  The following sectionsSecurity InteractionMiscellaneous define the annotations for those intents.

A.1 Application of Intent Annotations

Where multiple intent annotations (general or specific) are applied to the same C++ element, they are additive in effect.  An example of multiple policy annotations being used together follows:

 

// @Authentication
// @Requires({CONFIDENTIALITY_MESSAGE, INTEGRITY_MESSAGE})

 

In this case, the effective intents are authentication, confidentiality.message and integrity.message.

 

If an annotation is specified at both the class/interface level and the member function or data member level, then the member function or data member level annotation completely overrides the class level annotation of the same type.

 

The intent annotation can be applied either to classes or to class member functions when adding annotated policy on SCA services.

A.1 Inheritance and Intent Annotations

The following example shows the inheritance relations of intents on classes, operations, and super classes.

 

// @Remotable

// @Integrity("transport")

// @Authentication

class HelloService {

public:

// @Integrity

// @Authentication("message")

   wchar_t* hello(wchar_t* message) {...}

 

// @Integrity

// @Authentication("transport")

   wchar_t* helloThere() {...}

}

 

// @Remotable

// @Confidentiality("message")

class HelloChildService : public HelloService {

public:

// @Confidentiality("transport")

   wchar_t* hello(wchar_t* message) {...}

// @Authentication

   wchar_t* helloWorld(){...}

}

Example 1a.  Usage example of annotated policy and inheritance.

 

·            The effective intent annotation on the helloWorld member function is @Integrity(“transport”),  @Authentication, and @Confidentiality(“message”).

·            The effective intent annotation on the hello member function of the HelloChildService is @Integrity(“transport”), @Authentication, and @Confidentiality(“transport”),

·            The effective intent annotation on the helloThere member function of the HelloChildService is @Integrity and @Authentication(“transport”), the same as in HelloService class.

·            The effective intent annotation on the hello member function of the HelloService is @Integrity and @Authentication(“message”)

 

The listing below contains the equivalent declarative security interaction policy of the HelloService and HelloChildService implementation corresponding to the C++ classes shown in Example 1a.

                       authentication"/>

                 <function name="helloWorld" requires="authentication"/>

          </implementation.cpp>

   </component>

 

   ...

 

</composite>

Example 1b.  Declaratives intents equivalent to annotated intents in Example 1a.

A.1 Relationship of Declarative and Annotated Intents

Annotated intents on a C++ class cannot be overridden by declarative intents either in a composite document which uses the class as an implementation or by statements in a componentType document associated with the class.  This rule follows the general rule for intents that they represent fundamental requirements of an implementation.

 

An unqualified version of an intent expressed through an annotation in the C function or function declaration can be qualified by a declarative intent in a using composite document.

Table B5: Miscellaneous Intent Annotations

B.3 Policy Set Annotations

The SCA Policy Framework uses Policy Sets to capture detailed low-level concrete policies (for example, a concrete policy is the specific encryption algorithm to use when encrypting messages when using a specific communication protocol to link a reference to a service).

Policy Sets can be applied directly to C++ implementations using the @PolicySets annotation.  The PolicySets annotation either takes the QName of a single policy set as a string or the name of two or more policy sets as an array of strings.

 

Corresponds to: @policySets attribute of a service, reference, operationan interface.cpp, implementation.cpp, function or propertycallbackFuncion element.

 

Format:

// @PolicySets("<policy set QName>" |
//        { "<policy set QName>" [, "<policy set QName>"] })

Snippet B10: @PolicySets Annotation Format

As for intents, PolicySet names are QNames – in the form of “{Namespace-URI}localPart”.

 

Applies to: Class, Member Function,

 

Example:

// @Reference(name="helloService", interfaceHeader="helloService.h",

//            required="true")

// @PolicySets({ MY_NS “WS_Encryption_Policy",

//               MY_NS "WS_Authentication_Policy"})

   HelloService* helloService;

   …

Snippet B11: Example @PolicySets Annotation

 

In this case, the Policy Sets WS_Encryption_Policy and WS_Authentication_Policy are applied, both using the namespace defined for the constant MY_NS.

 

PolicySets satisfy intents expressed for the implementation when both are present, according to the rules defined in [POLICY].

Snippet C6: Example @OneWay Annotation

C.1.4 @WebParam

Annotation on a C++ member function indicating the mapping of a parameter to the associated input and output WSDL messages.

 

Corresponds to: javax.jws.WebParam annotation in the JAX-WS specification (7.11.4)

 

Format:

// @WebParam(paramName=<="parameter", name="WSDLElement",

//       targetNamespace="namespaceURI", mode="IN"|"OUT"|"INOUT",

//       header="false", partName="WSDLPart", type="xsdType")

Snippet C7: @WebParam Annotation Format

where:

·         paramName : NCName (1..1) – specifies the name of the parameter that this annotation applies to. The value of the paramName of a @WebParam annotation MUST be the name of a parameter of the member function the annotation is applied to. [CPPC0004]

·         name : NCName (0..1) – specifies the name of the associated WSDL part or element.  The default value is the name of the parameter.  If an @WebParam annotation is not present, and the parameter is unnamed, then a name of “argN”, where N is an incrementing value from 1 indicating the position of he parameter in the argument list, will be used.

·         targetNamespace : string (0..1) – specifies the target namespace for the part.  The default namespace is the namespace of the associated @WebService.  The targetNamespace attribute is ignored unless the binding style is document, and the binding parameterStyle is bare.  See @SOAPBinding.

·         mode : token (0..1) – specifies whether the parameter is associated with the input message, output message, or both.  The default value is determined by the passing mechanism for the parameter, see Parameter and return type classification.

·         header : boolean (0..1) – specifies whether this parameter is associated with a SOAP header element.  The default value is “false”.

·         partName : NCName (0..1) – specifies the name of the WSDL part associated with this item.  The default value is the value of name.

·         type : NCName (0..1) – specifies the XML Schema type of the WSDL part or element associated with this parameter. The value of the type property of a @WebParam annotation MUST be one of the simpleTypes defined in namespace http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema. [CPPC0005] The default type is determined by the mapping defined in Simple Content Binding.

 

Applies to: Member function parameter.

Format:

// @WebThrows(faults="faultMsg1"[, "faultMsgn"]*)

Snippet C15: @WebThrows Annotation Format

where:

·         faults : NMTOKEN (1..n) – specifies the names of all faults that might be thrown by this member function.  The name of the fault is the name of its associated C++ class name. A C++ class that is listed in a @WebThrows annotation MUST itself have a @WebFault annotation. [CPPC0008]

 

Applies to: Member function.

 

Example:

See @WebFault@WebFault.

D    WSDL C++ Mapping Extensions

The following A set of WSDL extensions are used to augment the conversion process from WSDL to C++.  All of these extensions are defined in the namespace http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca-c-cpp/cpp/200901.  For brevity, all definitions of these extensions will be fully qualified, and all references to the “cpp” prefix are associated with the namespace above. If WSDL extensions are supported by an implementation, all the extensions defined here MUST be supported and MUST be mapped to C++ as described. [CPPD0001]

D.1 <cpp:bindings>

<cpp:bindings> is a container type which can be used as a WSDL extension.  All other SCA wsdl extensions will be specified as children of a <cpp:bindings> element.  A <cpp:bindings> element can be used as an extension to any WSDL type that accepts extensions.

D.2 <cpp:class>

<cpp:class> provides a mechanism for defining an alternate C++ class name for a WSDL construct. 

 

Format:

<cpp:class name="xsd:string"/>

Snippet D1: <cpp:class> Element Format

where:

·         class/@name : NCName (1..1) – specifies the name of the C++ class associated with this WSDL element.

 

Applicable WSDL element(s):

·         wsdl:portType

·         wsdl:fault

 

A <cpp:bindings/> element MUST NOT have more than one <cpp:class/> child element. [CPPD0002]

 

Example:

Input WSDL file:

<definitions xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"

      xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"

      xmlns:tns="http://www.example.org/"

   </portType>

</definitions>

 

Generated C++ file:

// @WebService(name="StockQuote", targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/"

//       serviceName="StockQuoteService")

class StockQuoteService {

};

Snippet D2: Example <cpp:class> Element

D.3 <cpp:enableWrapperStyle>

<cpp:enableWrapperStyle> indicates whether or not the wrapper style for messages is applied, when otherwise applicable.  If false, the wrapper style will never be applied.

 

Format:

<cpp:enableWrapperStyle>value</cpp:enableWrapperStyle>

Snippet D3: <cpp:enableWrapperStyle> Element Format

where:

·         enableWrapperStyle/text() : boolean (1..1) specifies whether wrapper style is enabled or disabled for this element and any of it’s children.  The default value is “true”.

 

Applicable WSDL element(s):

·         wsdl:definitions

·         wsdl:portType – overrides a binding applied to wsdl:definitions

·         wsdl:portType/wsdl:operation – overrides a binding applied to wsdl:definitions or the enclosing wsdl:portType

 

A <cpp:bindings/> element MUST NOT have more than one <cpp:enableWrapperStyle/> child element. [CPPD0003]

A          Conformance Items

This section contains a list of conformance items for the SCA C++ Client and Implementation Model specification.

Snippet E3: SCA <export.cpp> and <import.cpp> Schema

F     Normative Statement Summary

This section contains a list of normative statements for this specification.

Conformance ID

Description

[CPP20001]

A C++ implementation MUST implement all of the operation(s) of the service interface(s) of its componentType.

[CPP20003]

An SCA runtime MUST support these scopes; stateless and composite. Additional scopes MAY be provided by SCA runtimes.

[CPP20005]

If the header file identified by the @header attribute of an <interface.cpp/> element contains more than one class, then the @class attribute MUST be specified for the <interface.cpp/> element.

[CPP20006]

If the header file identified by the @callbackHeader attribute of an <interface.cpp/> element contains more than one class, then the @callbackClass attribute MUST be specified for the <interface.cpp/> element.

[CPP20007]

The @name attribute of a <function/> child element of a <interface.cpp/> MUST be unique amongst the <function/> elements of that <interface.cpp/>.

[CPP20008]

The @name attribute of a <callbackFunction/> child element of a <interface.cpp/> MUST be unique amongst the <callbackFunction/> elements of that <interface.cpp/>.

[CPP20009]

The name of the componentType file for a C++ implementation MUST match the class name (excluding any namespace definition) of the implementations as defined by the @class attribute of the <implementation.cpp/> element.

[CPP20010]

The @name attribute of a <function/> child element of a <implementation.cpp/> MUST be unique amongst the <function/> elements of that <implementation.cpp/>.

[CPP20011]

A C++ implementation class MUST be default constructable by the SCA runtime to instantiate the component.

[CPP20012]

An SCA runtime MUST ensure that a stateless scoped implementation instance object is only ever dispatched on one thread at any one time. In addition, within the SCA lifecycle of an instance, an SCA runtime MUST only make a single invocation of one business method.member function.

[CPP20013]

An SCA runtime MAY run multiple threads in a single composite scoped implementation instance object and it MUST NOT perform any synchronization..

[CPP20014]

The SCA runtime MAY use by-reference semantics when passing input parameters, return values or exceptions on calls to remotable services within the same system address space if both the service member function implementation and the client are marked “allows pass by reference”.

[CPP20015]

The SCA runtime MUST use by-value semantics when passing input parameters, return values and exceptions on calls to remotable services within the same system address space if the service member function implementation is not marked “allows pass by reference” or the client is not marked “allows pass by reference”.

[CPP20016]

If the header file identified by the @header attribute of an <interface.cpp/> element contains function declarations that are not operations of the interface, then the functions that are not operations of the interface MUST be excluded using <function/> child elements of the <interface.cpp/> element with @exclude="true".

[CPP20017]

If the header file identified by the @callbackHeader attribute of an <interface.cpp/> element contains function declarations that are not operations of the callback interface, then the functions that are not operations of the callback interface MUST be excluded using <callbackFunction/> child elements of the <interface.cpp/> element with @exclude="true".

[CPP20018]

An SCA runtime MUST NOT perform any synchronization of access to component implementations.

[CPP30001]

If a remotable interface is defined with a C++ class, an SCA implementation SHOULD map the interface definition to WSDL before generating the proxy for the interface.

[CPP30002]

For each reference of a component, an SCA implementation MUST generate a service proxy derived from ServiceProxy that contains the operations of the reference’s interface definition.

[CPP30003]

An SCA runtime MUST include an asynchronous invocation member function for every operation of a reference interface with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation or the reference as a whole.

[CPP30004]

An SCA runtime MUST include a response class for every response message of a reference interface that can be returned by an operation of the interface with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation of the reference as a whole.

[CPP40001]

An operation marked as oneWay is considered non-blocking and the SCA runtime MAY use a binding that buffers the requests to the member function and sends them at some time after they are made.

[CPP40002]

For each service of a component that includes a bidirectional interface, an SCA implementation MUST generate a service proxy derived from ServiceProxy  that contains the operations of the reference’s callback interface definition.

[CPP40003]

If a service of a component that has a callback interface contains operations with a @requires=”asyncInvocation” intent applied either to the operation of the reference as a whole, an SCA implementation MUST include asynchronous invocation member functions and response classes as described in Long Running Request-Response Operations.

[CPP70001]

The@name attribute of a <export.cpp/> element MUST be unique amongst the <export.cpp/> elements in a domain.

[CPP70002]

The@name attribute of a <import.cpp/> child element of a <contribution/> MUST be unique amongst the <import.cpp/> elements in of that contribution.

[CPP80001]

The return type and types of the parameters of a member function of a local service interface MUST be one of:

·            Any of the C++ primitive types (for example, int, short, char). In this case the data will be passed by value as is normal for C++.

·            Pointers to any of the C++ primitive types (for example, int *, short *, char *).

·            The const keyword can be used for any pointer to a C++ primitive type (for example const char *). If this is used on a parameter then the destination can not change the value.

·            C++ class. The class will be passed by value as is normal for C++.

·            Pointer to a C++ class. A pointer will be passed to the destination which can then modify the original contents.

·            DataObjectPtr. An SDO pointer. This will be passed by reference.

References to C++ classes (passed by reference).An SCA implementation MUST translate a class to tokens as part of conversion to WSDL or compatibility testing.

[CPP80002]

The return type and types of the parameters of a member function of a remotable service interface MUST be one of:

·            Any of the C++ primitive types (for example, int, short, char). This willAny of the C++ types specified in Simple Content Binding. These types may be copied.

·         DataObjectPtr. An SDO pointer. The SDO will be copied and passed to the destination.by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer. Unless the member function and client indicate that they allow by-reference semantics (see AllowsPassByReference), a copy will be explicitly created by the runtime for any parameters passed by-reference or by-pointer.

·         An SDO DataObjectPtr instance. This type may be passed by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer. Unless the member function and client indicate that they allow by-reference semantics (see AllowsPassByReference), a deep-copy of the DataObjectPtr will be created by the runtime for any parameters passed by-value, by-reference, or by-pointer.  When by-reference semantics are allowed, the DataObjectPtr itself will be passed.

[CPP80003]

A C++ header file used to define an interface MUST:

Declare declare at least one class with:

·         At least one public member function.

·         All public member functions MUST beare pure virtual (virtual with no implementation).

[CPP90002]

A C++ header file used to define an interface MUST NOT use the following constructs:

·            Macros

·            Inline member functions

·            Friend classes

[CPP100001]

A WSDL file might define a namespace using the <sca:namespace> WSDL extension, otherwise all C++ classes MUST be placed in a default namespace as determined by the implementation.  Implementations SHOULD provide a mechanism for overriding the default namespace.

[CPP100002]

If multiple operations within the same portType indicate that they throw faults that reference the same global element, an SCA implementation MUST generate a single C++ exception class with each C++ member function referencing this class in its @WebThrows annotation.

[CPP100003]

·         For unwrapped messages, an SCA implementation MUST map:

      in - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by const-reference.

      out - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by reference, or to the member function return type, returned by-value.

      in/out - the message part to a member function parameter, passed by reference.

[CPP100004]

·         For wrapped messages, an SCA implementation MUST map:

      in - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by const-reference.

      out - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by reference, or to the member function return type, returned by-value.

      in/out - the wrapper child to a member function parameter, passed by reference.

[CPP100005]

An SCA implementation SHOULD provide a mechanism for overriding the default targetNamespace.

[CPP100006]

An SCA implementation MUST map a method’s return type as an out parameter, a parameter passed by-reference or by-pointer as an in/out parameter, and all other parameters, including those passed by-const-reference as in parameters.

[CPP100008]

An SCA implementation MUST ensure each class that is referenced from an @WebThrows annotation MUST itself have a @WebFault annotation that associates the fault with a particular global element that will be associated with the fault message.An SCA implementation MUST map simple types as defined in Table 91 and Table 92 by default.

[CPP100009]

An SCA implementation MUST map simple types as defined in Table 1 and Table 2 by default.An SCA implementation MUST map a WSDL portType to a remotable C++ interface definition.

Table F1: SCA C++ Core Normative Statements

F.1 Annotation Normative Statement Summary

This section contains a list of normative statements related to source file annotations for this specification.

Conformance ID

Description

 

[CPPA0001]

If annotations are supported by an implementation, the annotations defined here MUST be supported and MUST be mapped to SCDL as described. The SCA runtime MUST only process the SCDL files and not the annotations.

 

[CPPA0002]

If multiple annotations apply to a program element, all of the annotations SHOULD be in the same comment block.

 

[CPPA0003]

An SCA implementation MUST treat a class with an @WebService annotation specified as if an @Interfacea @Remotable annotation was specified.

 

[CPPA0004]

An SCA implementation MUST treat a member function with a @WebFunction annotation specified as if @Function was specified with the operationName value of the @WebFunction annotation used as the name value of the @Function annotation and the exclude value of the @WebFunction annotation used as the exclude valued of the @Function annotation.

 

[CPPC0001]

If WSDL mapping annotations are supported by an implementation, the annotations defined here MUST be supported and MUST be mapped to WSDL as described.

 

[CPPC0002]

An SCA implementation MUST treat any instance of a @InterfaceRemotable annotation and without an explicit @WebService annotation as if a @WebService annotation with no parameters was specified.

 

[CPPC0004]

If a @WebService does not have a portName element, an SCA implementation MUST use the value associated with the name element, suffixed with “Port”.The value of the paramName of a @WebParam annotation MUST be the name of a parameter of the member function the annotation is applied to.

 

[CPPC0004]

Only named parameters MAY be referenced by a @WebParam annotation.

[CPPC0005]

The value of the type property of a @WebParam annotation MUST be one of the simpleTypes defined in namespace http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.

 

[CPPC0006]

The value of the type property of a @WebResult annotation MUST be one of the simpleTypes defined in namespace http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.

 

[CPPC0007]

A C++ class with a @WebFault annotation MUST provide a constructor that takes two parameters, a std::string and a type representing the fault information. Additionally, the class MUST provide a const member function “getFaultInfo” that takes no parameters, and returns the same type as defined in the constructor.

 

[CPPC0008]

A C++ class that is listed in a @WebThrows annotation MUST itself have a @WebFault annotation.

 

[CPPC0009]

An SCA implementation MUST treat a member function annotated with an @Function annotation and without an explicit @WebFunction annotation as if a @WebFunction annotation with with an operationName value equal to the name value of the @Function annotation, an exclude value equal to the exclude value of the @Operation annotation and no other parameters was specified.

G    Migration

To aid migration of an implementation or clients using an implementation based the version of the Service Component Architecture for C++ defined in OSOA SCA C++ Client and Implementation V1.00, this appendix identifies the relevant changes to APIs, annotations, or behavior defined in V1.00.

G.1 Method child elements of interface.cpp and implementation.cpp

The <method/> child element of <interface.cpp/> and the <method/> child element of <implementation.cpp/> have both been renamed to <function/> to be consistent with C++ terminology.
