i'm having basic questions about the functionality of JDBC. My IOS App needs a db2 connection. Since the IOS SDK dont have a db2-odbc connectivity i need a bridge to translate db2 commands to JSON/XML and vice versa. Is it possible to realise a java application acting as the target for my IOS App and forwarding everything to the db2 server?

Yes it is possible to realise such an application. IBM Data Studio allows you to generate a REST or SOAP-based web service that you can then deploy in a Java container of your choice. More details on IBM DeveloperWorks.

  • Well this isn't the answer i was looking for. In my opinion there is a much easier way to do this: Using the JDBC driver for DB2 and communicating between java and objective c with stream socket – BobbelKL Sep 04 '13 at 17:09
  • Well, if you already know the answer, then why do you ask the question? – mustaccio Sep 04 '13 at 18:08
  • Maybe there is a easier way for my needs. No offense, but your reply was more like: yeah it's surely doable somehow, check out google if you want to know how – BobbelKL Sep 05 '13 at 15:06
  • Your question was "is it possible?", and I gave you the answer to your exact question. If you're not happy, may be you should have asked a different question. – mustaccio Sep 05 '13 at 15:13
