You’re already using ActiveRecord…why not throw the rest of
the Rails stack in and use REST, XML-RPC or SOAP?

Hi,

Transfering ActiveRecord objects to the client through Drb,
transparently, appears to me to be much more effective than using an
API, like the one you get with a REST-enabled server. But REST could be
an option, yes. I have just asked the Qt team if the link between REST
and Qt is easy to do.
