Getting data through tomcat

[talljames]

Hi all,

I have written an application in Visual C# that needs to get data from
a MySQL database via a Tomcat Web server (J2EE). Any ideas on the
methodology I should use for this. I looked into Borland's Janeva,
but too expensive for me.

Look at AXIS, and stick a servlet based or JSP webservice in front of the
data. .NET can easily consume a java webservice if the wsdl is available.

THanks John,

I see some sample clients written in Java but none in C sharp. Would
you know of a sample in C#.NET?

cheers

Theres lots of examples of consuming web services from C#, consuming a java
web service is just the same really. Take a look at the help files in
VS.NET for how to create an asp.net web service, and have a read of this for
your specific scenario.

Obviously, someone will need to create the web methods for the Tomcat
instance to provide a data layer accessible over http.
