Webservice Server entity

The Webservice Server entity contains the main logic to publish services. It listens for incoming requests and executes the relevant service operation.

The XML representation of a Webservice Server entity is a 4wsprg file.

When a Webservice Server entity is implemented from the diagram, a 4gl source file is generated which contains the MAIN function for the application. This 4gl file is also used to combine the other generated 4gl files into a Genero application.

Any changes to the BA diagram are included in the subsequent re-generating of the program code.

The generated code can be customized.
