hey guys i am developing a final year location-based project(gps) in android.I have to create a server using php and mysql which contains name and location(in latitude and longitude) of important hospitals in Mumbai.The android client should be able to retrieve the the latitude and longitude of locations in mysql(external) database and then plot it on a google map.
ppl have suugested me to use default http client to communicate with server(apache web services)...Could u plzz tell me whether this is possible?If yes, then can someone plzz suggest me some good tutorials (basics)for learning client server communication using apache (http client and http server) on the web...and also if possible its implementation in android(so that i can use it in my final project to connect to my php-mysql server ) ....in order to make it more efficient... Any help would be appreciated....cheers
