Interface ServiceOperation

All Known Implementing Classes:

BaseServiceOperation, InOnlyOperation, InOutOperation

public interface ServiceOperation

Representation of an operation on a ServiceInterface.

Each operation has:

• an exchange pattern (IN_OUT, IN_ONLY)
• a name
• an input message referenced type
• an (optional) output message type
• an (optional) fault message type

The mapping of operation and message names is defined by the concrete implementation of ServiceInterface. For example, the expected mapping of a Java interface would be Java method name to ServiceInterface operation name.
