MobyCoreService API

The API allows to develop BioMoby services based on JAX-WS architecture. Using this API one can implement a synchronous (RPC-encoded) "moby" servces. It also contains an experimental support for asynchronous Document/Literal services ("doc-literal-async").

One can use a MobyGenerator utility to generate EJB3 service templates based on this API. Also it is easy to transform these generated services to a Servlet based ones.

Here is a simple BioMoby synchronous service implementation: 

@WebServiceProvider(serviceName="TestService", 
                    portName="runTest", 
                    targetNamespace="urn:TestService/wsdl",
                    wsdlLocation = "WEB-INF/wsdl/TestService.wsdl")
@javax.xml.ws.ServiceMode(value=javax.xml.ws.Service.Mode.MESSAGE)
@Stateless(name="NCBIBlastp")
public class NCBIBlastpService extends MobyProvider implements Provider
{
    @Override
    public MobyMessage call(MobyMessage message)
    {
      return message;
    }
}

And the WSDL file description:
