Hello Gustavo;
the WebObjects server is .... (kinda lost here with so many server words), because I have the LDAP, the SQL, and now the WO server? :S.. Here they don't want the Cocoa app talk directly to the DB, neither the LDAP, so thinks are starting to be clear for me, if last question gets clear, :S.
The queries / authentication to the LDAP server can also be abstracted by JSON-RPC API's provided by your WebObjects application. This way, the client does not need to know what it is authenticating against NetInfo/LDAP/Database/???, it is just simply logging into the WebObjects application which does the dirty work of talking to the back-end resource which contains the information. A classic case of how powerful an application server is in this equation.
And yes, they told me they want this to be accessible via iPhone, for the future.
The Cocoa JSON-RPC library also works on iPhone.
I will herd goats with Chuck (and allow him to set Beer quotas) before I ever try to create my own ORM.
This is some very sage advice from Dave. cheers. ___ Andrew Lindesay www.lindesay.co.nz _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
