It seems that RPC style is not being supported according to ws-basic
profile:
http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/Basic/2002-10/BasicProfile-1.0-WGD.htm

It just happens that Tim Ewald wrote his piece a week before the draft
was released, and he was probably very influential to this profile in
the first place.

Subject: [SOAP] Is there a future for RPC style SOAP?


Hello,

Tim Ewald from Microsoft wrote an illuminating article on why SOAP
encoding has no future in web services.

<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
us/dnsoap/html/argsoape.asp>

But what about RPC style?

Is there a future for RPC in web services? As web services are also
increasing used for intra-enterprise applications there is a clear need
for a standardized, cross-platform way of invoking remote procedure
calls.
