Glad to hear they now have a web services interface; I tried to work
with them to wrap their API with a Java web service a few years ago, but
the Java API relied on JNI/native code that had a 60 second delay during
initialization. Obviously something was timing out, but "it worked for
them" so they stopped responding to my emails. I didn't consider it the
best solution for our situation anyway, and the project was
(permanently) set aside.
PC Miler is still running as part of our operations, but as part of a
turnkey solution (it just calculates overall mileage for TruckMaster).
One of the features that made it less relevant was that it mostly
operated at the city level instead of optimizing routes within a city.
I see they now have a Streets version; I will keep this in mind, as that
and the web services combined could make it worthwhile to us if this
becomes a priority again.

Subject: [U2] PC Miler Web Services Interface
Does anyone on this list have any experience building an interface
from Universe Basic (Windows - Ver 10.1.3) to PC Miler's new web
services solution?
If so, did you find performance to be satisfactory and could you
provide us some direction in the programming/implementation?
