Abstract: A system and method are provided to perform tentative updating for transactions using the Web Services Reliable Messaging protocol. From a protocol layer of a client side web services framework persists a message from an application transaction (a reversion message) in a persistent storage unit. The web services framework forwards the reversion message as a reliable message to a transport layer to cause a recipient to revert to a state prior to the application transaction, if a triggering event occurs in the web services framework. If no triggering event occurs a confirmation message is forwarded as a reliable message to confirm receipt of the tentative update at the transport layer. Concurrently with the confirmation persisted reversion message is deleted from the persistent storage unit.

Abstract: A method and a system that incorporate Web services reliable messaging in a Web services client application via an application programming interface (API). The method includes obtaining a Web services proxy object from the client application and using this object for creation of a logical sequence from a sequence factory. The Web services client application transmits a reliable message sequence to the Web services provider based on the logical sequence.
