Hi! Axis is the standard webservice implementation. It provides you ways to expose methods from a java class to be used by a remote application (same way as the RMI the only difference is that not only java applications can use the exposed methods).
The rest depends on the java implementation and the client's interface regards, Istvan > > L�hett�j�: "Yakulis, Ross (Ross)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > P�iv�: 05.05.2004 18:41 > Vastaanottaja: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Otsikko: RE: question about database result sets... > > It occurs to me that that EJBs were created to address exactly what you describe. > Though you could also use a web service as well.
