An Introduction to RhoMobile: Mobile Application Development for Enterprise Data (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479275496)

An Introduction to RhoMobile provides an introduction to Motorola Solutions' RhoMobile application development platform. For IT professionals tasked with integrating enterprise systems with mobile devices, RhoMobile is an excellent solution. An Introduction to RhoMobile contains an overview of the platform and its components; four modules with multiple application development tasks and sample code; and developer tips based on Oak Tree Systems' real-world development of applications to accompany TrainingForce. A robust Getting Started section discusses the elements of the RhoMobile platform, and introduces basic concepts associated with creating a Model-View-Controller mobile application. The four modules include 18 individual exercises, each designed to introduce a key element of developing a working application. -- Module 1 explores creation of the basic mobile application and interface. -- Module 2 works through the creation of a RhoConnect application and the use of a web service to connect with enterprise data. -- Module 3 extends the application's functionality and branding. -- Module 4 introduces manipulation of data on the user's device and synchronizing it with the server data. The book concludes with a section on common issues and work-arounds, while appendices contain detailed information on the installation of RhoMobile on both a developer workstation and a Microsoft Windows 2003 Server. A number of files to support the reader's practice are available for download. A modified version of Microsoft's AdventureWorks sample database is used in conjunction with a public web service to provide data for student exercises.
