I know this question is asked before also, but I want to know whether we can Connect to external database (e.g mySQL) from android device without using a webservice.
I have already build the app using webservice but now they have asked us to make it without using webservice.
Can anybody knows or give any reference about same ?
I have all the required data about the database location i.e. server name, db name etc.
Actually in my requirement I am downloading and xml using a webservice which will have all the details the connection string, database name, server name, username , password etc. but the connection is to be done on runtime.
