Estimating the term…
A method (and apparatus) for adapting an input parameter,for dynamically invoke the target Web services, and for adapting output results, the method including: receiving an invocation request including an input parameter in a first format; retrieving MetaWSDL (Meta Web Service Description Language), wherein said MetaWSDL includes a universal XML (eXtended Markup Language) representation which includes semantic information of a Web service method signature; invoking a MetaWSDL processor to adapt the input parameter to a second format using the retrieved MetaWSDL; dynamically invoking the target Web services using the adapted parameter in the second format; and adapting the output result in a first format to a second format using the MetaWSDL.
A method for adapting an input parameter, the method comprising:
A method for adapting a Web service output parameter, comprising:
A method for method signature adapting an input parameter, the method comprising:
A method for generating a MetaClient preference file in a MetaClient library for storing information regarding a preferred set of Web services, comprising:
An apparatus for method signature adaptation, the apparatus comprising:
A MetaWSDL for automatic method signature adaptation, comprising semantic information of Web services method signatures.
