Re: XML-RPC for Database Access

[Bruce Van Horn]

about a year and a half ago I built  a transaction server that took a 
series of queries in an xml document via xmlrpc.

It works great as long as you don't try to move really large amounts of 
data or BLOBs.

I am pretty new to Java and even newer to JAX-RPC.  Does anyone know 
of any examples of how XML-RPC has been utilized for Database Access?  
Authentication of a user, viewing of data, updating tables, 
persistance?  I am thinking of using XML-RPC for an application 
deployed on the web with WebStart (JNLP) since it is lighter than JDBC 
drivers.  Any ideas on why not to do it this way?

Thanks,

Shawn
