I know using a web service might do this and be in many cases the desired way to go. But it’s not the right solution for every case.
Any chance of getting support in Corona SDK for this http://www.keplerproject.org/luasql/index.html?
Thanks

Same here, I would switch an existing app over to Corona for future development IF i could get web service support and push notification working. [import]uid: 14136 topic_id: 4304 reply_id: 18817[/import]
Through lua sockets there is support for all the normal network connectivity options, and the new async http functions have been introduced to easy the process of downloading larger items.
There are several json/xml parsers around in lua that would satisfy any curl/rest/xmlrpc service.
@henkbl: why do you want to talk directly to a DB instead of a web service? As a systems guy having a publicly facing db server is kind of scary to me. [import]uid: 3 topic_id: 4304 reply_id: 18882[/import]

Let’s say I want to write a small query tool to allow DBA types to run some queries against the database from the local network. Wasn’t thinking to allow a game to allow people all over the world to connect directly too.
