Realize a J2ME reporting thin client (for PDA) with XML for Analysis

[Former Member]

I'd create a reporting thin client (on PDA or smartphone) that uses the web service XMLA. How I can implement it? Can I use J2ME ?

Can i have more informations ??

You can use any client which supports SOAP, need to make sure you have the parsers also available.

I tried to generate web service stub with J2ME WIRELESS TOOLKIT but the process generation failed because the simple type javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement was unknown.

I haven't tried generating stubs from WTK, but you could also try to access your WS by programming it. One of the solutions available for most of J2ME devices (MIDP/CLDC) is kSOAP (<a href="http://www.ksoap.org">www.ksoap.org</a>). I've tested it with Apache Axis and .NET-based WS servers - it works just fine, so I assume it should be working with SAP as well. This two articles might be valuable for you:
