1) Authenticate / do data validation 2) Perform Oracle Query 3_init) Start writing JSON doc 3) Iterate over Oracle results, use each result to write out a snippit of JSON to the returned document 3_end) Finish up writing JSON doc Without any more information, it is tough to decompose that further without actually using the specifics of your particular schema, etc. On Oct 22, 2008, at 11:12 AM, Stephen Martino wrote: > Ed, Thanks for your input. > > Has anyone out there put together such a script that I can use as a > template? > > thanks > > Steve > > On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 10:07 AM, Edward Benson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Steve, > > You can use any data source you want as long as the client eventually > receives that data in an Exhibit-compatible format.
