iOS / MySQL Integration

[William Frowine, PMP]

Hello All:

I am wondering if there is a good way to query a mysql database so that the results are displayed on a tableview. 

Any thoughts?

-Bill

Bill, 

I am assuming that the MySQL database resides on an external server.  Normally one would write a restful API and use either XML or json to put object data into an NSArray. Does they help?

Thanks.  I think this will help.  That is what I thought.

If you use ODBC, there will be less data transmitted than with XML, however you will want to encrypt the connection, or at least encrypt the database password.
