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. |

XSLT blooms with Java XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) offers an excellent vehicle for styling XML documents as HTML. However, it shows some weakness when the transformation requires extensive logic. When XSLT languages fail to complete the job, you can extend your stylesheets with Java classes and take advantage of both languages' features. This article demonstrates how to extend XSLT with Java. You will learn how to instantiate and invoke methods on Java objects from within an XSLT stylesheet. The article also demonstrates how XML nodes are passed to Java classes and returned back to the stylesheet for further processing. |
