Naming Services

There are two options for installing a web service. The first option allows the user to specify which context a web service will be installed into. This option may be utilized by supplying a second argument that specifies the context. The context should be specified using a string and must be defined under the legal rules specified by Mathematica.

The second option available for installing a web service is the AllowShortContext option. By default the context of a web service is added to the $ContextPath. This allows users to call the functions using short names. However, if a user does not want the web service context added to $ContextPath, then the user should set AllowShortContext->False. If this option is set to False, then the entire context will need to be specified in order to call a function.
