Architecting BlackBerry CRM / SFA applications
I am in process to start developing a Blackberry application (Proof Of Concept) on the lines of SalesForce and SalesNow CRM. I am a web developer with skills on LAMP technologies with a limited knowledge in JAVA /J2ME / BB Native libraries. Have gone through all the examples / samples on RIM / STACKOV开发者_运维知识库ERFLOW websites.
Expert advice needed on how to start developing the same with information pertaining to the following points.
- how to implement the storage of data (Records) on device for offline browsing. (e.g. Persistent Store / RMS etc)
- what data format to follow to download from server. (shud it be xml, string based etc)
- sample Class design for entities like (Account, Contacts, Leads etc)
- Sample Tabbed like interface similiar to Salesforce and SalesNow BB apps.
any pointers / suggestions / help is appreciated.
Tx in advance.
