Generating PL/I language data structures and runtime-specific XML message processing

Support has been added to allow you to generate PL/I language structures and runtime-specific XML message processing from a Web service description.

The user can start with a WSDL document that defines an existing Web service, They can create an application from it that implements some or all the functionality described in the Web service definition. To assist the user in writing the new PL/I application, the tool generates a template PL/I program coded for either a new Web service provider or a new Web service consumer. This new program uses language structures that correspond to the message elements for each operation (operation -> input -> message -> part -> element), where the element is an XML Schema type) to process requests and issue replies.
