inputs is shown. Among those inputs the user may find the ones that have been
matched/aligned to the input parameters of the aligned operations after the 3rd level
classification process. The WS invocation panel allows users to insert values to those
parameters that correspond to real WS operations. In the example shown in Figure 17
the user inserts the value 1980 into the “year” input parameter. The user can switch
the view to the real operation by selecting “Wsdl operation” at the drop-down list.
When the minimum required number of input parameters has been assigned to real
values there is at least one real WS operation that can be invoked. The invocation of
the real WS operation is performed by pressing the “Invoke” button. The results that
are derived from the real WS after the invocation of its selected operation are
illustrated in Figure 18.
These are shown both in the form of a SOAP message (SOAP request and SOAP
response) or in terms of their content, whenever this is possible (e.g. when an output
can be expressed as a known primitive data type such as integer, string, etc.). In the
example shown in Figure 18 after the WS invocation the value of the output parameter
called “GetTotalSocialEventsResult” is the integer number 4.
