We are looking for a standard way to provide such facility and the Web services standard seems perfect. As the downloaded data depends on the user, it will be difficult to generate a file and then make it available to the users. We have already run a pilot with Coldfusion where we create a string and send it back to the remote process. It works fine even for huge profile.
As we want to use web services, we will use cffunction to rationalise and simplify the application maintenance. By using XML variable, I expect to avoid duplication of variable when calling a function.
I can't see the advantage of using java to develop such feature. First, I don't know java and it would take me ages to develop the feature, but most important, I am not sure that it would be less memory consuming!!!
Many thanks for your useful feedback.
