OrindaBuild and Web Services

OrindaBuild is not an end-to-end Web Service generator. There are lots of products on the market that do the commonplace mechanics of Web Services such as turning Java into WSDL. Instead OrindaBuild generates Java source code that bridges the gap between your Oracle database and existing web service offerings such as Apache Axis.

OrindaBuild writes the Java classes that you need for a Web Service: Java Wrapper Classes that run individual PL/SQL procedures or SQL statements. The generated classes have 'get' and 'set' methods for input and output parameters. When possible cursors are returned as instances of specially created Java record classes. A Data Access Object class that adds session management and logging. A Web Service Implementation Class that extends the Data Access Object with stateless methods that to call PL/SQL and SQL statements and return the results using Web Service friendly data types and data structures. A Web Service Interface Class that contains the stateless methods you wish to expose as a Web Service.
