Hi,

We have developed an application with DNN framework and llblgen Self-servicing components. We want to to expose some of our business logic components as webservices. Here are my queries regarding this:

  1. Is it advisable to expose llblgen objects as parameters and return values in webservice?

  2. Which mode is more suibable for webservices - SelfServicing components or Adapter components?

  3. As we already have developed our application with Self-servicing components, can we add a new set of llblgen components in Adapter mode? In other words, can we have both Self-servicing and Adapter mode components side-by-side within the same application?

  4. If adapter mode is the one to go ahead for webservices, how easy it is to convert the existing Serf-servicing components?

Thanks, srikanth.

1- It is always advisable to use simple data types as parameters and return values in WebServices

2- Adapter is highly recommended for distributed applications

3- Yes (can't think of anything that can prevent this)

4- I'd say pretty easy.
