File transfer to the web app hosting server - which nettalk object

[alex.kolaric]

Hi,

I have the following scenario. I have database and web server app sitting at the hosting server which are used for the web access through the browser. On the client side I have client app and local database used for creating documents. I would like to generate XML files for the docs locally and upload them to the hosting server where I would have another application which will serve for receiving those XML packets and importing them into the database used for web access.

Which objects should be used for this purpose? I guess that connection to the hosting server can be achieved using NetSimple object, but I'm not sure how to upload file using it. Can I use NetFileServer and NetGetFile objects if sending/receiving files within LAN?

I would also have to download packages from the hosting server back to the client.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi,

I guess that using of a SOAP server would be the best solution.

Hi Alex,

a SOAP server and SOAP client is probably the easiest to do - trivial really.

The existing web server app can also be the SOAP server, so you only need one app on the server side.

Hi Bruce,

thanks for the info. I already did it like that using combination of NT and IQ Xml. I was looking at the NT example for SOAP server and it gave me exactly what I need. As always NT saves the day
