Abstract
A method, system, and/or computer program product invokes a web service in a software application. A software application comprises a machine readable description of a functionality to be supported by a web service to be invoked, and a machine readable description of an execution instruction for the web service to be invoked. One or more processors determine/identify a web service that supports the functionality to be supported and the execution instruction for the web service to be invoked.

A method of invoking a web service in a software application, the method comprising:
- providing a software application comprising a machine readable description of a functionality to be supported by a web service to be invoked and a machine readable description of an execution instruction for the web service to be invoked;
- and
- determining, by one or more processors, a web service that supports the functionality to be supported and the execution instruction for the web service to be invoked.
A computer program product for invoking a web service in a software application, the computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code readable and executable by a processor to perform a method comprising:
- providing a software application comprising a machine readable description of a functionality to be supported by a web service to be invoked and a machine readable description of an execution instruction for the web service to be invoked;
- and
- determining a web service that supports the functionality to be supported and the execution instruction for the web service to be invoked.
A computer system comprising:
- a processor, a computer readable memory, and a computer readable storage medium;
- first program instructions to provide a software application comprising a machine readable description of a functionality to be supported by a web service to be invoked and a machine readable description of an execution instruction for the web service to be invoked;
- and
- second program instructions to determine a web service that supports the functionality to be supported and the execution instruction for the web service to be invoked;
- and wherein
- said first and second program instructions are stored on said computer readable storage medium for execution by said processor via said computer readable memory.
