Description | Dynamic Web Services is a project to develop a way to
implement "web services" (by the common definition) from simple
configuration files read at run time. The initial service
implementations supported are SQL queries, so the result of the service
invocation will be the results of the corresponding query formatted by
whichever standard is specified. |
Purpose | Initially the primary motivation is to aid the development of
AJAX web sites that perform RPC calls which translate well into one SQL
query. Neither the architectural approach or implementation language (Haskell) are popular or proven technologies, but they do show great promise in keeping development simple. Their initial learning curve is another matter entirely ;) |
Status | The current implementation is a prototype, and it has
undergone only light internal use. Current evaluation is that the basic
structure and approach is sound and the rest of the implementation
items need to be completed before any kind of externally usable release
can be made available. Implemented calling conventions:
