M-Business Anywhere Application Edition provides access to data stored in legacy database systems by supporting synchronization of XML data sources to an on-device XML API. Support for XML provides seamless integration with industry-leading databases, including Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase. M-Business XML API provides a uniform, cross-platform method to access data with JavaScript.
With the M-Business XML conduit and the M-Business XML API, you can send data to mobile devices, present that data in M-Business Client, and report changes to the originating database server using the M-Business Anywhere standard form submission mechanism. The M-Business XML conduit and M-Business XML API rely on XML-based standards, including XML-formatted DBMS responses and W3C-approved XML 1.0-compliant schema documents for describing databases.
If you use the M-Business XML conduit, you must make sure that the supporting code file on the device is the correct one for the version of M-Business Client on the device. For more information, see M-Business version-specific on-device code files.
M-Business XML conduit is not currently supported on Symbian OS.
This chapter provides an overview of the M-Business XML conduit and the M-Business XML API. It is intended to be used in combination with M-Business XML API Reference.
For a detailed example complete with sample code, see Building Applications with M-Business XML Conduit.
