Hi all,
We are designing a distributed application based on EJB and the N-tier
architecture.
We're using a standalone Java application for the presentation tier (our
target is Intranet environment)
There are two issues we're trying to resolve:
1. How to minimize the effort of installing (and upgrading) the desktop
client application considering
the following facts:
* The JavaPC or SUN's JavaStation is not applicable in our case.
* We do consider using InstallShields Java addition.
2. How to verify the client's version once the user logs in?
As far as i understand, one way to do so may be to send the clien's version
to its associated sessionBean following the authentication verification, and
in case of out-of-date version notifying the user about the version
incompatability (and optionaly trigger a download process of the latest
client from a server located in the intranet).
The question is whether there is a built in mechanism or a standard way to
do so.
Thanks in advance,
Gabby
