<h5><A NAME="wswsifattwsif"></A>Pass SOAP messages with attachments using WSIF</h5>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP-attachments">W3C SOAP Messages with Attachments</a> <img src="www.gif" width="18" height="15" alt="Link outside Information Center" border="0"> describes a standard way to associate a SOAP message with one or more attachments in
their native format (for example GIF or JPEG) by using a multipart MIME structure
for transport. It defines specific usage of the Multipart/Related MIME media
type and rules for the usage of URI references to see entities bundled
within the MIME package. It outlines a technique for a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP/">SOAP 1.1</a> <img src="www.gif" width="18" height="15" alt="Link outside Information Center" border="0"> message to be carried within
a MIME multipart/related message in such a way that the SOAP processing rules
for a standard SOAP message are not changed.</p>
<p>WSIF supports passing attachments in a MIME message using the
SOAP provider. For more information, see <a href="wswsifprovsp.htm">Use the SOAP provider</a>. The attachment is a <tt>javax.activation.DataHandler</tt>.
The <tt>mime:multipartRelated</tt>, <tt>mime:part</tt> and <tt>mime:content</tt> tags
are used to describe the attachment in the WSDL.</p>
<p>For more information, see the following topics:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="wswsifattwsdl.htm">SOAP messages with attachments
- writing the WSDL extensions</a>.</li>
<li><a href="wswsifattpass.htm">SOAP messages with attachments
- passing attachments to WSIF</a>.</li>
<li><a href="wswsifattmap.htm">SOAP messages with attachments
- types and type mappings</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>These scenarios are not supported:</p>
<ul>
<li>Using DIME.</li>
<li>Passing in <tt>javax.xml.transform.Source</tt> and <tt>javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart</tt>.</li>
<li>Using the <tt>mime:mimeXml</tt> WSDL tag.</li>
<li>Nesting a <tt>mime:multipartRelated</tt> inside a <tt>mime:part</tt>.</li>
<li>Using types that extend <tt>DataHandler</tt>, <tt>Image</tt>, and so forth.</li>
<li>Using types that contain <tt>DataHandler</tt>, <tt>Image</tt>, and so
forth.</li>
<li>Using Arrays or Vectors of <tt>DataHandlers</tt>, <tt>Images</tt>, and
so forth.</li>
<li>Using multiple in/out or output attachments.</li>
</ul>
<p>The MIME headers from the incoming message are not preserved for referenced
attachments. The outgoing message contains new MIME headers for <tt>Content-Type</tt>, <tt>Content-Id</tt> and <tt>Content-Transfer-Encoding</tt> that
are created by WSIF.</p>
