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.
