Abstract
An API schema language and transformation techniques allow an application programming interface to be defined in a markup language. This interface definition can then be transformed into a non-markup language source file. Examples of transformation techniques include techniques to transform the interface definition into a component object model (COM) header file, a documentation file that describes the contents of the non-markup language source file, and a proxy object code file.
