Re: [Hardhats-members] Java-client access to VistA RPC (Remote Procedure Calls)

2006-03-13 Thread Richard Schilling
Last fall I announced a simple Java client for GT.M (which will eventually deal directly with VistA data) for OpenEMed. The goal here is to allow VistA (and MUMPS data stores in general) to serve as data storage for Java applications - our immediate need is to persist data for OMG CORBAMED s

I am not aware of such an effort, and I don't think you will be able to create a credible back-of-the-cocktail-napkin estimate. If you really want a credible estimate, I would suggest running the source code through a reverse engineering tool to create a metric such as the number of function point

Why redo it if Codeweavers is going to make it work on Linux using Crossover Office and Wine? Not to mention, that by the time you recoded it, there would be a new version or a bunch of new functionality you would have to add or change. Wiat for Codeweavers or wait for the CPRS-R Java version.

Has anyone tried to estimate the work involved in redoing CPRS for Linux - I mean complete with the RPC or else it does not make sense. A wild guess without seriously looking under the hood - I think something like 3-5 man years will be needed to port it for freedom from Windows. But then if someon

Yes, we definitely do not want to reinvent -- or even modify -- CPRS. We do, however, need to augment its functionality to address small-office/clinic workflow issues and provide some automated, user-friendly linkages to an existing practice management system. We were hoping that we could use a Jav

You do not want to reinvent the wheel if at all possible. CPRS looks nice and simple on the surface, but it isn't. There is a lot under the hood. There have been many who think it would be relatively easy to replace CPRS with something done in "X", but it is just not that simple. Take a loo

I've been asked to look into the possibility of using a Java client to access VistA via the RPC Broker. Is this perhaps something simple that has already been done (I hope, I hope, I hope) or will it require inventing (as opposed to reinventing) the wheel?
