Issue/Introduction:

Description:

Is SDM WebService using a different method to access the MDB as against the Web Interface?

Solution:

No.

SDM WebServices calls are done by the webengine. The webengine uses spel function calls to request the MDB data using slump->virtdb->sql_agent.

This helps to keep the WebService logic the same as the SDM Web interface. Direct connection to the MDB through the Webservice is not supported, irrespective of the DBMS type.
