System and method for automating the development of web services

A system and method for developing web services that includes three frameworks: a Design Time Framework, an Object-Service Framework, and a Run Time Framework. In the Design Time Framework, the system and method includes receiving a schema in a descriptive markup language from a user and generating source code artifacts in an object oriented programming language based on the schema. In the Object-Service Framework, the system and method includes relating the generated source code artifacts to a set of pre-built runtime services. Finally, in a Run Time Framework, the system and method includes providing the set of runtime services, wherein the runtime services interact with the generated source code artifacts through the relationship defined by the Object-Service Framework.
