Either method would be useful. In Java and .Net, you have the ability to add
a Web Service which then asks for the URL of the WSDL file such as
http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl . The IDE then auto generates the
data types and proxies for use within user specified classes and methods. I
must admit that i'm not particularly familiar with how the WSDL thing works
as i'm currently trying to get it working in Java but not having much
success.

I suppose the crème de la crème would be for Gambas to actually create the
classes AND the functions within it. No other languages appears to do that,
yet the classes and functions required to interact with the website are
nearly always the same from user to user. The only parts that change are
user specific info such as usernames and passwords which are generally
passed as function arguments anyway...
