Hi,
I am currently involved in a project which is used for syncing mobile
phonebook data with a syncml server.
We are using sync4j as our syncml server.
The database is MySql.
The design specification require all database interactions to be
exposed as web services.
Could anyone please provide any pointers to the following:
1)Can sync4j act as a web service client? If so, how?
2)Can sync4j be designed to work with any database schema or is it
mandatory to use sync4j's own schema? Can this database reside on any
external database server like MySql?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Priyom

I haven't followed Sync4j in the last few months, but it used to have
a plugin mechanism (called SyncSource) to manage item data. The
SyncSource implementation can use any technology to retrieve and
store item data, be it a JDBC connection or a web service. We have
successfully used Sync4j for accessing item data in Exchange (over
WebDAV), EJBs and XML files.
