Programming and Compiling Web Services in GPSL

摘要

Implementing web services that participate in long-running, multi-lateral conversations is difficult because traditional programming languages are poor at manipulating XML data and handling concurrent and interrelated interactions. We have designed a programming language to deliberately address these problems. In this paper we describe how to use this language to consume a popular web service, and discuss the compiler, including the kinds of semantic checks it performs, and the runtime environment.
