The infocenter has a great article about how to use “Industry Standard Schemas” with WebSphere Process Server.

This is required reading.

You will need to know about the Sequence object when dealing with

• xsd:any
• xsd:anyType
• xsd:anySimpleType
• xsd:anyAttribute

This used to be completely undocumented and now, the documentation is actually really good. Enjoy your undefined datatype.

I still stick with the rule that undefined types are the scourge of good integration.
