tinyMOBY

BioMoby Web services do not use XML Schema for datatype definitions and thus may not be thoroughly described in WSDL language. BioMoby relies on its own BioMoby Central Registry where type information may be consulted through SOAP API or may be seen as RDF ontology. tinyMOBY is an extension for the tinyWSDL WSDL 2.0 parser, which allows to embed BioMoby ontology into the WSDL 2.0 descriptors, thus providing complete BioMoby Web services definitions through Semantically Annotated Web Services Descriptions.
The library interacts with BioMoby Central Registry and may automatically generate appropriate WSDL 2.0 descriptors using BioMoby service identifiers (LSIDs). Generated WSDL 2.0 descriptors may be used then to get a complete definition of the services in MobyCore model, that facilitates further services execution.
