Flynet Web Service Generator 2010 enables you to easily create, from scratch, secure .NET web services that instantaneously retrieve and display any data you require from your database using SQL. Simply specify your data-source and SQL query and it will construct a web service that retrieves the appropriate data and returns the results in XML format.
All the .NET code is generated automatically in C#; you don’t need to write a single line of code. This is useful, amongst other things, for anyone who wants to expose potentially large volumes of ‘trapped’ data quickly and securely, without the cost of hiring a developer. Alternatively this can be used as a development tool, generating a base on which to build additional functionality and cutting out the tedious time-consuming initial stages of web service development.
The applications for this type of web service are endless. One example application would be to rapidly generate a web service which queries live business critical data and presents the results for consumption in a digital dashboard. More potential applications are listed below:
Features
- Instantaneous access to any OLEDB or ODBC compliant data-source (this covers the majority of databases as well as other sources of data e.g. spreadsheets) via web services
- Data-sources are specified using connection strings, a list of which is made available through the application (new connection strings can be added with ease)
- Any part of the connection string or query may be set as a web service parameter to increase the flexibility of the generated web service
- A query wizard allows you to create simple SQL queries so in-depth knowledge of SQL is not required
- Web services are written using C# .NET source code
- All the generated code is available for editing if necessary
- Web services can be generated and deployed in a matter of minutes
- Light-weight program (under 0.5 MB)
- Comprehensive support from Flynet
- Supports stored procedures and SQL statements that update the data-source
System Requirements
- PC with Windows 98, ME, 2000, NT, Vista or 7
- .NET Framework 2.0
- ASP.NET compatible web server e.g. IIS or Apache
