WebServices Inspection Language (WSIL) and WebSphere Application Server® V5.0
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
What is WSIL? Is WSIL supported in WebSphere Application Server V5.0?
 
Resolving the problem
WebServices Inspection specification can be summarized as follows:
"WSIL defines how a service requestor can discover an XML Web Service description on a Web server, enabling such requestors to easily browse Web servers for XML Web Services."

Thus, using WSIL, a service provider can make services available for discovery and use by service requestors. This is very similar to UDDI's mission statement and should come as no surprise since WSIL is meant to be the stepping-stone to UDDI .WSIL defines an XML based language by which services can be advertised to interested requestors.

WSIL 1.0 is supported in WebSphere Application Server V5.0.
