Abstract

An annotation based development platform for stateful web services is described. In one embodiment, the developer expresses logic offered by the web service using a standard programming language augmented with declarative annotations specifying preferences for exposing that logic as a stateful web service. At compile time, an enhanced compiler analyzes the annotated source file and automatically generates the mechanisms required to expose its functionality as a stateful web service.
