You need to carefully read over the specifications. SCA allows you to define contracts and to build relationships based on those contracts -- it intentionally divorces and generalizes language implementation choices precisely because externalizing platform object models is bad. In fact, I'd argue that the model privileges languages like BPEL that expect to work explicitly with canonical business documents in practice.<BR/><BR/>For Java, SDOs are recommended for operations inputs and outputs precisely because the bias is to work with well defined XML messages. In this case, SDO is just easier to work with than DOM. I’m very surprised by this reaction. You need to carefully read over the specifications.
