Hi all,
I've been struggling with an application architecture in which I can
provide a JSP-based web UI and a Cocoa application. I'd like to build
a multi-tier system. Ideally, I'd be using WebObjects (if WO for ObjC
was still around :-( ). However, now my sights have set on EJB. The
web side is a no-brainer, but what's the best way to access EJB's from
Cocoa? My options include:
I really don't understand that logic. You don't want to use WO because
it doesn't have ObjC (only Java), yet you want to use EJB, which is only
Java and not ObjC.
Why EJB? Why!? (as I scream in horror down the dark alley persued by
thugs wearing Sun, BEA and IBM schwag)
3) Use SOAP. My concerns here are session management and programming
model. I'll probably end up writing my own remote object
infrastructure based on SOAP so the client looks like it's working with
an object and the SOAP code is hidden from the client. This
There is an XML-RPC client and server for ObjectiveC, and a number of
very good XML-RPC servers for Java. XML-RPC is simpler and has stronger
interop than SOAP.
Not that SOAP is bad.
