<h4><A NAME="wswsif">WSIF API</A></h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>The WSIF API supports the invocation of Services defined in WSDL. WSIF
|
|
is intended to be used in both WSIF clients and also in Web service intermediaries.</p>
|
|
<p>The WSIF API is driven by the abstract service description in WSDL; it
|
|
is completely independent of the actual binding used. This makes the API more
|
|
natural to work with, because it uses WSDL terms to refer to message parts,
|
|
operations, and so on.</p>
|
|
<p>The WSIF API was designed for the WSDL usage model; to pick a port that
|
|
supports the port type needed, then invoke the operation by providing the
|
|
necessary abstract input message consisting of the required parts, without
|
|
worrying about how the message is mapped to a specific binding protocol.</p>
|
|
<p>Other Web service APIs, for example SOAP APIs, are not designed on WSDL,
|
|
but for a specific binding protocol with its associated syntax; for example,
|
|
target URIs and encoding styles.</p>
|
|
<p>The WSIF API's main interfaces are described in the following help topics:</p>
