Hi Charith,

This is a very good idea. I especially like the concept because this can be used to "push" notifications to the clients. Here are some few comments.

1. What is your plan to test this application? Are you thinking of using a digital modem or a SMS Server on your own? May be this part will be as trivial as sending an email to a server, or invoking a REST interface.

2. If you are using java to write clients that will run on clients, remember you will not be able to use at least some of the Axis2 classes, if they are not supported by the profiles in J2ME.
How about reviving Mira project which is a implementation of JSR172. MMS transport for Axis2 [1] seems to be using this.


3. Rather than writing a generic (and crappy) java application, how about writing more integrated apps for famous phones like iPhone, blackberries, etc.,. When the applications are integrated, it will be more useful and convenient, IMO.
There is/was some activity in this area within Axis2/C community for symbian, Android
thanks,
Damitha

This project can be handled couple of different ways. If you can elaborate a bit more on your plan, it will be easy for us to understand how easy/hard it is and depending on that we can help you.

With Mettha,

    Hi,

    I m planing to write a SMS transport for axis2 as My GSoC
    project.From that users will be able to invoke web services using
    a SMSs and also axis2 will be able to send SMS massages to the
    clients.

    As a first phase i m thinking of giving support to Simple sms's to
    invoke  services (Eg: by providing service name and paramters
    (like in Rest))
    And also in the Sender side making it enable to Send simple text
    responces

    And as a Sesond phase i will try to handle binery attatchments and
    SOAP content comming with a SMS.(Since now there may insidences
    that javaME mobile clients may able to send recieve SOAP and
binery attachments using SMSs).
    I'm thinking of get the support of SMSLib <http://smslib.org/> or
    jsmpp <http://code.google.com/p/jsmpp/> libries to implement this
feature(Both projects have Apache License) If you think this is a good project idea.I would like to submit a
    project proposal.and implement this feature.

    your ideas and comments are welcome.

    thank you,
