Hi Dennis,
finally a good response - I appreciate it.
I concur with you on the J2ME compatibility issues, in fact I did
experience that first hand in
my current implementations. I am looking into JiBX now, I knew a few
things about it but not
at the level that I can comfortably say that this could be a good
solution for what I am after.
But from what you are saying below, this is a very promising direction
and it would be good
to give it a shot. This is open-source code right?
Thanks

Hi Demetris,
Part of the problem is that J2ME compatibility is not the easiest
thing to determine - it's not like you can just set a compiler option
and have any compatibility problems reported during the build.
JiBX used to work on mobile devices, though I think the J2ME
compatibility for the runtime has been lost over the last year or two.
If you'd like to give it a try, I'll look into fixing whatever needs
to be changed (some uses of ArrayList and HashMap, from what I
remember, along with some java.sql class references). You could then
use the JiBX/WS web services support for your J2ME platform:
http://jibx.sourceforge.net/jibxws/
JiBX/WS is significantly faster than Axis2 when used for plain text
web services, and if we decided to implement XBIS and TCP/IP support
for J2ME as well it'd be several times faster.

Hi all,
I asked this question before (twice) but I didn't get a single
response, interestingly enough.
I am assuming by now that there is no mobile version of Axis/Axis2
and all the stories I hear
about people getting Web services to work on mobiles is a fiction ...
Has anyone managed to run Web Services (servers primarily) on
mobile devices (either
CDC, CLDC, scripting, Web Runtime etc.)? I will appreciate any
feedback on something
like this.
Thanks very much
