supports the Message EIP

As described in Messaging Bridge EIP, irrespective of the format of a request you send from the client application, WSO2 ESB transforms the message into a SOAP envelopenvelope, which adheres to the Message EIP. The following code segment illustrates the transformed message of a typical request. Notice that it has a header and a body.

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ser="http://services.samples" xmlns:xsd="http://services.samples/xsd">

  <soapenv <soapenv:Header />
   <soapenv:Body>

       <ser:getQuote>        
         <ser:request>
             <ser:symbol>FOO<symbol>foo</ser:symbol>
         </ser:request>
