CAMPBELL, Calif. September 4, 2002 - Cape Clear Software, a leading provider of Web Services technology, today released a free graphical WSDL Editor for programmers interested in working with Web Services. The Cape Clear WSDL Editor delivers the first complete environment for rapid Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) development. It supports novice programmers, while also providing sophisticated features for more experienced Web
Services developers. The WSDL Editor includes powerful wizards that eliminate the complexity of WSDL, as well as WSDL validation, which simplifies testing, and support for the rapid creation of Web Services from XML Schema.
"The WSDL Editor is to Web Services development what WYSIWYG HTML editors were to Web page development," according to John Maughan, business manager for CapeStudio at Cape Clear Software. "It offers an intuitive graphical environment for the design of Web Services and, in particular, assists developers who wish to create Web Services from existing XML interfaces such as SWIFT, ACORD, BAPI, and RosettaNet. Many developers are struggling with the complexities of WSDL; the WSDL Editor is designed to help them out."

* Import of any XML Schema, including industry standards such as ACORD and SWIFT
* Support for WSDL validation, where WSDL is tested against WSDL Schema

* Support for the latest WSDL specification
* Rich editing features
