Would it now be cool to have a local and remote system kept in synch automatially?
The Derby database is used for this, and it seems that it would be a logical step for servoy to cache solution data locally, then when a client goes offline they can continue to create transactions, which will be synchronised the next time they go online? That obviously means that the solution repository itself also needs to be cached locally so that it can run offline.
This would be a fantastic feature!!
This is nothing for Servoy, really, but the database. All major database vendors offer replication for that purpose. Sybase claims to be an expert with Mobilink in this area…
Hi Patrick
What i am suggestin is for Servoy to embed Derby and offer synchronisation of the repository and other databases so solutions can work offline, and synchronise when online.
Setting up mobilink is seems to technical, and not user friendly.
Synching with your xml pluin looks like a good option in the interim
Thanks

Syncing your database is always you as a developer should control.
Just think of a database with tens of Gigs of data… I wouldn’t be happy as a user to take the entire database with me offline… Think of how long it might take to sync when I’d be back online…
