Is WSDL the indispensable API? Many developers consider Web Services Description Language (WSDL) the new software design view. WSDL offers a verbose, ASCII, standard, and language-agnostic view of services offered to clients. WSDL also provides noninvasive future-proofing for existing applications and services and allows interoperability across the various programming paradigms, including CORBA, J2EE, and .Net. This article shows a service's WSDL view, then explains how you can generate client and service implementations for Java and C#. It finishes by discussing possible sources for initial WSDL view generation. |

Take control of the servlet environment, Part 1 The ever-popular servlet cleanly and simply develops and deploys Web-based applications. However, although Java is platform independent, the Web as a whole is not. The language and the servlet API do not provide such niceties as optional session-persistence schemas (i.e., store in memory, in a database, or in a cookie), and they don't easily accommodate ad hoc solutions to shortcomings in cookie handling. To handle such issues, Thomas Davis and Craig Walker have developed an unobtrusive framework, an invisible layer between your servlets and the servlet engine, that gives you greater control over the environment. |
