Subject: Re: Can V in MVC be Swing in Struts?
I will not use RMI to communicate between clients and
servers since the clients are always behind firewalls.
So it is possible that some clients cannot talk with
servers at all if I use RMI.
About Soap, I mean the general term "Soap" not only
the one: Apache Soap. Sure, I will consider Apache
AXIS among others.
For app servers, Weblogic and other commercial ones
are too expensive and JBoss is too slow. You know what
I will choose.
BTW, when your book will be avaible? I cannot wait.
