Web Services Invocation Framework

Description

A tool that provides a standard API for invoking services described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL), no matter how or where the services are provided. The architecture allows new bindings to be added at run time. WSIF currently provides developers with a standard interface for working with representations of any Web service as an alternative to working directly with a SOAP API. In the WSIF architecture, services are invoked by using WSDL documents. WSIF works with services regardless of how they were implemented or where they reside. Services may be invoked dynamically and without generating stubs.
