Thanks for the reply. I am completely new to programming on the server side working only with stand alone apps in the past.
We have no solution in place for PDF generation at the moment on the server. And whatever we do has to be open source. We don't want to send the actual reports via email, just a link for the user to go download it from the server. As far as distributing the data from a requesting client (who wants to create a new auto- generated report) to the server and then from the server out to subscribers who could produce the report for publication, I am a lost. I tried out the BlazeDS trial for datapush and it seems promising, but I have no idea how the messagebroker works really and especially how it might receive data from producers (requesting clients). I've also read a bit on JMS and it looks promising, but seems to be complicated to implement. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tom Chiverton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Does anyone have any experience with BlazeDS?
