Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing an application with intermittent connectivity support is disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment, an application development tool is configured for providing intermittent connectivity support in an application that uses distributed objects. The application development tool includes an intermittent connectivity framework that has program code for queuing method calls, as well as an intermittent connectivity component generator that has program code for converting an existing interface for a distributed object into an intermittent connectivity component configured to forward method calls to the intermittent connectivity framework. Method calls may be queued, for example, when there is no connection to the distributed object, and then later completed after restoration of the connection. According to one particular implementation of this embodiment, the intermittent connectivity component generator is in the form of a wizard utility.
