Design and Implementation of an Asynchronous Invocation Framework for Web Services
Asynchronous invocations are an important functionality in the context of
distributed object frameworks, because in many situations clients should not block dur-ing
remote invocations. There should be a loose coupling between clients and remote
services. Popular web service frameworks, such as Apache Axis, offer only synchronous
invocations (over HTTP). An alternative are messaging protocols but these implement
a different communication paradigm. When client asynchrony is not supported, client
developers have to build asynchronous invocations on top of the synchronous invocation
facility. But this is tedious, error-prone, and might result in different remote invocation
styles used within the same application. In this paper we build a framework using pat-terns
for asynchronous invocation of web services. The framework design is based on the
asynchrony patterns and other patterns from the same pattern language.
