1. A method for facilitating generation of a server-side application capable of calling a function of a wireless application on a mobile device, the method comprising the steps of:
- retrieving a structured data file defining the wireless application;
parsing the structured data file for identifying exposed functions;
generating code stubs for each of the exposed functions, the code stubs configured to be included as part of the server-side application and to define a message to be transmitted to the wireless application upon execution of the code stub,generating a namespace in which to hold the code stubs; and
creating a class for the server-side application including all of the exposed functions, wherein the class includes a plurality of user definable public properties, the public properties including at least one of;
an automatic redirect property configured to determine whether or not redirection of the message is permitted;
a uniform resource locator (URL) configured to identify the location of a gateway server;
a uniform resource identifier (URI) configured to identify the wireless application;
a version identifier configured to identify a version of the wireless application;
a locale identifier configured to identify a locale of the wireless application;
a recipient list configured to identify a plurality of recipient mobile devices;
orcredentials configured to provide authentication of the server-side application.

Abstract
A method is provided for facilitating generation of a server-side application capable of calling a function of a wireless application on a mobile device. A structured data file defining the wireless application is retrieved. The structured data file is parsed for identifying exposed functions. Code stubs are generated for each of the exposed functions. The code stubs are configured to be included as part of the server-side application and to define a message to be transmitted to the wireless application upon execution of the code stub.
