Minor Description
When performing queries using the combineCategoryBags findQualifier the cateogoryBag does not appear to be combined as it is defined in the specification in section 5.1.4.3.
Considering the following setup (assuming that the tModels referenced are defined):
one business entity ("uddi:business:01") with a service ("udd:service:01") with a categoryBag containing tModelKey in a keyedReference which evaluates to "uddi:test01" and a keyValue which evalues "value-x" containing a binding (uddi:binding:01) with a cateogryBag which has the tModelKey which evaluates to "uddi:test02" and a keyValue which evaluates to "value-y"
<businessEntity businessKey="uddi:business:01">
<name>uddi:business:01</name>
<businessServices>
<businessService businessKey="uddi:business:01" serviceKey="uddi:service:01">
<name>uddi:service:01</name>
<bindingTemplates>
<bindingTemplate serviceKey="uddi:service:01" bindingKey="uddi:binding:01">
<accessPoint>http://www.testing.com/binding:01</accessPoint>
<categoryBag>
<keyedReference tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:01" keyValue="value-y"/>
</categoryBag>
</bindingTemplate>
</bindingTemplates>
<categoryBag>
<keyedReference tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:02" keyValue="value-x"/>
</categoryBag>
</businessService>
</businessServices>
</businessEntity>
a second business entity ("uddi:business:02") has a service ("udd:service:02") with a categoryBag containing tModelKey in a keyedReference which evaluates to "uddi:test01" and a keyValue which evalues "value-x" containing a binding (uddi:binding:02) with a cateogryBag which has the tModelKey which evaluates to "uddi:test02" and a keyValue which evaluates to "value-z"
<businessEntity businessKey="uddi:business:01">
<name>uddi:business:01</name>
<businessServices>
<businessService businessKey="uddi:business:02" serviceKey="uddi:service:02">
<name>uddi:service:02</name>
<bindingTemplates>
<bindingTemplate serviceKey="uddi:service:02" bindingKey="uddi:binding:02">
<accessPoint>http://www.testing.com/binding:02</accessPoint>
<categoryBag>
<keyedReference tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:01" keyValue="value-z"/>
</categoryBag>
</bindingTemplate>
</bindingTemplates>
<categoryBag>
<keyedReference tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:02" keyValue="value-x"/>
</categoryBag>
</businessService>
</businessServices>
</businessEntity>
If the following query is performed:
<find_service xmlns="urn:uddi-org:api_v3>
<findQualifiers>
<findQualifier>combineCategoryBags</findQualifier>
</findQualifiers>
<categoryBag>
<keyedReference keyValue="value-z" tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:01"/>
<keyedReference keyValue="value-x"tModelKey="uddi:tmodel:02"/>
</categoryBag>
</find_service>
If I am understanding the way the findQualifer is described in the specification (the category bags for the service level and below are combined for the purposes of the query),the expected service to be returned is "uddi:service:02". When this query is performed, no services are returned from the registry. Is this findQualifer implemented?
