– A web service for the conversion of XML standards
Abstract
In this paper we show how open standards and open source software can serve as a basis for developing modern EDI-solutions. In particular, we present a web service for converting XML documents. Conversions are performed by applying XSLT stylesheets. Communication with the web service is done via SOAP. That means, one sends a SOAP request containing conversion information and a source XML document as an attachment to the web service. The web service will in turn perform the transformation and return a SOAP response with the conversion result attached as an XML file.
