Could I write an application that runs under KVM or Waba and takes a tuple from a TSpaces server via a MoDAL application and writes a record to a database on the Palm?
No, MoDAL doesn’t do that. It does not read from, or write to, the local Pilot database. MoDAL is a program that runs on the Pilot that – Reads a MoDAL program and renders the features on the Pilot screen as specified in the MoDAL program (buttons, boxes, forms, etc) – Sends and receives tuples over the network. Specifically, it speaks to a TSpaces proxy using a private protocol, that in turn translates the simple pilot messages (which aren’t really tuples yet) into real TSpaces tuples. The server takes those tuples and communicates to other network services. The current implementation of MoDAL does NOT write or read tuples in the local pilot database. So, it doesn’t matter what else is running on the Pilot (KVM or Waba). If you just want to send and receive tuples and then write them to the local Palm DB, then you might consider taking a public package, like RMI Lite. You’ll have to do some programming, but you’ll be closer to your goal. RMI Lite has a small client that allows you to
