I'm curious if this is a use-case for ECF:

I have to manage a TCP Socket Server where a bunch of mobile devices are
using this to push informations to the server
they will then be picked up and made avalialble through server-only or
also remote OSGI services (Riena clients)

I dont know if ECF is great to be used as a TCP Socket Connection Server ?

on the other way I also have to send out data to the devices
- using email
- using web-services
- using https
which all should be no problem

so I think ECF woul be very helpful to make all of this run but I'm not
sure about the TCP Connection server - thx for all infos (or examples)
how to solve this

I'm using so many eclipse projects, so perhaps now its time to start
with ECF ;-)

I guess to answer your questions, more details about the application are
needed. As far as I understand it, non-OSGi mobile clients are supposed
to communicate with an OSGi runtime over a TCP socket. Access to the
same data should be made available via OSGi remote services. There are
also going to be secondary communication channel
(asynchronous/synchronous) to communicate with the mobile clients.

Why do you need the secondary channels? Why not use asynchronous
communication for all interactions between the OSGi runtime and the
mobile clients? Can you detail what the Riena clients are supposed to do?

It's always the right time to start with ECF. ;-)

I'm working on a server receiving infos from mobile clients
and also pushing infos out to mobile clients

the ways how to transport the data differ from the mobile platform

per ex. integrating BlackBerry (thats what I'm working on as first)
if data was pushed to the devices this must be done using BlackBerry
infrastructure
and I can use the BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) using https
or if customer has a BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server) using webservices

such push-data is only about small-sized text pushes - and BB will
deliver them with guarantee to the end device

then - depending from the kind of information pushed - the device
connects thru http / https to a webserver to get the data in detail
or - the data was sent using email attachment where I also can rely on
the BB infrastructure

there are other use-cases (logging) where devices can log thru tcp
socket to a logserver (in my case a Lilith Logmonitor)

--
on other platforms communication ways are different because there's
nothing like a BB PushService with guaranteed delivery available

I'm always using Riena RCP (RAP) clients for my enterprise business
applications if I need a rich client
there are usecases where such a rich client sends information to the
server thru OSGI service causing the server to push to mobile devices
and/or to provide more data

forgot to mention that the other way around where the mobile device (BB)
sends informations to the server
(like "arrived at customer site" or GPS coordinates)
in many of these cases a TCP Socket connection was used
but perhaps to send an image or video this was sent using email w
attachment to the server - its easier to handle because then BB does
solve all the problems which could happen sending large files from
mobile device

Hi Ekke,

The short answer is 'yes', ECF does have a TCP socket server.

Longer Answer: ECF has what we call a 'generic' provider, that's based upon TCP sockets. Specifically, the class implementing this is in this bundle: org.eclipse.ecf.provider, with this class name:

org.eclipse.ecf.provider.generic.TCPServerSOContainer

We use this provider for lots of things...e.g. it supports remote services, shared object api, datashare api (messaging channels), and others. There is also another bundle, specifically for using the ECF generic server as a server: org.eclipse.ecf.server.generic. This has some IApplication impl classes for starting/running ECF generic servers as OSGi applications.

Further, I've personally done some work on using remote services to manage ECF generic servers...i.e. to create/start/stop new TCPServerSOContainers at runtime. If you are interested in this please contact me directly at slewis at composent.com.

Note one thing...it's also possible to run the ECF generic provider client and/or server *outside* of an OSGi runtime context...e.g. for running on blackberry, android, or some other types of clients.

Hi Ekke,

I forgot to mention: it's also completely possible to create your own provider...i.e. your own TCP socket-based implementation...i.e. either based upon the ECF generic stuff or from scratch. Then can use/reuse other parts of ECF (i.e. implement only some of the ECF apis...only the ones you care about for your particular use case).
