xml-dev - RE: XML Connect.

["greg.coulombe" <greg.coulombe@inforonics.com>]

I had a look at this product a few weeks ago and it looks to be a file
transfer program that uses an XML envelope but that's about it as far as the
XML goes. It can transfer any type of file with queuing and receipts and
such. This quote from their discussion list pretty well sums it up:

	Subject: RE: XML?

	XML Connect is payload agnostic. You can move EDI, XML,, even GIFS
using XML Connect. XML Connect's enveloping 	structure is based on XML.
Both for sending documents and the digital, XML based receipt that is sent
back to 	the sender upon successful receipt of the document. XML
Connect does do interrogation of this envelope to then 	execute routing
instructions.

	Translation and transformation e.g. CBL to RosettaNet or CXML to EDI
is a more robust process and performed by 	OnDisplay's eBizXChange.

	Thanks

	Kevin

Hope that helps,

Greg
