REST is a more general architectural concept... what does it have to
do with this? In other words, I'm not quite sure what you mean by
"REST along with other ways".

As BJ suggested in http://www.xfront.com/REST-Web-Services.html you can create Web services in REST spirit. I know this have some
limitations (regarding object types arguments) but don't you think it's a best practice to use this type of Web services before
thinking about using SOAP when you are in an heterogeneous environment (ie not only Java using RMI) ?

I know this is possible in OFBiz. My question is more because I wonder why I
did not see any use of this word but in questions
from Vedam in November.

It is certainly possible, and I'm aware of a few efforts to create
things like this based on OFBiz.
The term "client server" usually refers to a heavier client
application talking directly to the database server, and that is
basically what the POS application is (using a Swing UI, based on XUI).
Another, generally better, approach is to have a lighter application
that talks to service on an application server. The OFBiz framework
supports this easily as well talking to the server in limited ways
using SOAP or XML-RPC, or more flexibly with a remote dispatcher for
the OFBiz Service Engine. For example code and comments describing how
to use it see the java file for:
org.ofbiz.service.rmi.ExampleRemoteClient

Hi all,
i'm thinking if there's an ofbiz desktop client based on some
technology like eclipse RCP it will attract more users and
organizations, is there any project like this?
and if not, does ofbiz supports this model of development client /
server, is it easy or hard to be done ?
