Re: [firebird-support] Re: Firebird Android
Don`t think that would change the answers above too much. Depending on the amount of data the device needs, you mind find it simpler to simply get a full 'packet' of data once you unload whatever info you have locally. Keeping in sync is generally a pain in the ass and not always worth it. If you won`t be working online (and therefore bandwidth is not an issue) and the data is not huge (meaning it will do a full sync within a reasonable time) - my advice is not to bother :) 2015-01-18 19:43 GMT+02:00 Craig Cox craig_...@coxcolvin.com [firebird-support] firebird-support@yahoogroups.com: Thanks to everyone for your thoughts.

Re: [firebird-support] Re: Firebird Android
Hi, My RESTful web service has Apache + PHP + Slim + JSON + Firebird (PDO) combination. I am using it for the last 2 years. Or you can opt for Tomcat + Jersey + JSON + Firebird (Jaybird) combination also. Regards.

Re: [firebird-support] Re: Firebird Android
I have used Ruby (Sinatra) in the past (though I`m not too excited about the Firebird support, it is working), which does provide a rather easy start. Currently going with Clojure, which achieves results with even less code/effort (once you get over the lisp concepts) and offers a single .jar file to deploy. I assume there is something similarly pleasant to work with for Python. More traditional Java-based solutions would act just as well, but they would require a lot more code being written. Same goes for C# if you prefer .Net. In the end, there are way too many choices out there to have a right one. 2015-01-17 17:02 GMT+02:00 Sudheer Palaparambil sudheer@gmail.com [firebird-support] firebird-support@yahoogroups.com: Hi, My RESTful web service has Apache + PHP + Slim + JSON + Firebird (PDO) combination.

Hello. On the options I saw, Web service seems to me the best choice.
