Android Question Using RDC from iOS

I have to say that B4A is an outstanding development tool. Within a space of two months I have been able to create my first 4 apps with live connections to MSSQL databases, thanks to the RDC. It is this aspect of B4A that sets it apart from other tools because of the ease of accessing external data.

The apps have been so successful that I am now faced with having to support multiple languages and iOS. I would like to continue using the RDC Server component for accessing the SQL Server, and create an interface for my iOS apps.

Is documentation available that details how to call the RDC server?

Thank you for your feedback.

Note that with the new server support in B4J it will be even easier to implement backends more powerful than RDC.

Is documentation available that details how to call the RDC server?

You should go over the code in DBRequestManager. You will need to implement a similar solution in your iOS code.

Erel,

Thanks for the rapid response. I have only played with B4J so far but hope to use it properly before long. I have already started working through the DBRequestManager and my question was more in hope than expectation I have not had any problems with the RDC. It was easy to implement and has proved to be reliable and performs well with the small datasets I have been using.

I look forward to future developments.

The principle of RDC is really simple:
The RDC gets an POST or GET-Call, loads the data from database and return the data as JSON-Array back to the App.
In your IOS-app you should do a post or get-Request to the RDC and in return the app get an JSON-Array back from RDC (the "output" from RDC should be an JSON-Array).

An already running and working RDC should be useable from IOs-App as well as from B4A.
