Curl Data Kit Data Services 1.0 available

The Curl Data Kit project now includes Data Services support. The CDK-DS library implements the remoting and web messaging services that are supported by the open source BlazeDS server, including remote procedure calls (RPC) and publish/subscribe messaging.

This first CDK-DS Release is for use with Curl API Version 6.0. Using Curl Data Kit library Data Services (CDK-DS) packages, you can use remoting and messaging to interact with servers supporting the AMF data transfer protocol.

Action Message Format (AMF) is a compact binary data transfer format used originally for serializing ActionScript object graphs. The AMF protocol specification is open source. BlazeDS is an open source server-based Java remoting and web messaging technology.

The Curl Data Kit (CDK) project supplies libraries that facilitate building data-centric applications in Curl. Curl provides a Rich Internet Application platform for building and deploying Web-based applications that demand complex, highly interactive interfaces previously only possible as client-server applications.

The Curl Open Source program promotes the development of open source libraries for the Curl platform.
