James,
I think we should define the frontend now, and it also should
reflect to
the code, do we need a frontend api,
How many frontend do we have , and will we have?
Currently i know the JAX-WS and javascript are frontends, i guess there
are more. maybe have a pojo frontend?
Possibly and SCA frontend, SDO data model, others....
Are you envisioning the construction of a basis for a WSDL and
Java Annotation driven code generation tool framework that uses
a general and extensible service model, with pluggable and
scriptable code emitters?
Yes!
Because if you are I think that's a very interesting thing to
do :)
I started on a Javascript code generator for XFire once, but never had
the chance to finish it. Basically the idea was that you would just go
to http://foo.com/services/CustomerService?javascript and it would emit
a full javascript client for you. Kind of like DWR, but for web
services. You could even proxy other services like Amazon... If only I
had more time...
Cheers,
