Hi all,
Thank you in advance to anyone that can advise me on this query
Description:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
I am currently involved in a project for my last year in
University,University of Limerick, Ireland, B.Technology Degree.
The project is the development of a C application on a Palm PDA
device to
enable users to do their shopping at any time with their Plam.
The application is being built in C, because it is the favoured
development tool
for applications on the Palm OS....
My part of the project is the back end.....the Server side, which
contains a Java Web Server(JSDK2.1), Servlets, and JDBC to connect to
my database, containing customer info and pricing info. for various
products that the customer may wish to purchase.
Potential Problem:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
Because servlets are mainy used with HTML clients, web browsers, I
may have a problem invoking the servlets from within the C
application and indeed returning the result to the C application,
Client(on the Pda)....
Would you agree with this?
If yes, is there any way I could over come it?
Are there any other ways of invoking a servlet other than the usual,
Post and Get methods in HTML? In other words from a non-html client
like my one?
What about returning type...ContentType....is it possible for the
servlet to return data to a C client?
I would appreciate it greatly if anyone could throw some light on
this problem for me..
Best Regards,
Jennifer
