We've just managed to get Java UDRs working (IDS 9.30HC5, HP-UX 11i)
and I'm now being asked how/if we can issue an "http post" request
from a J-UDR to a remote machine?
I haven't a clue meself.
Confused of Tunbridge Wells.

How would you write a Java class that executed an http post request?
So, write that class.
Now, look at what it takes to register a class within IDS.
Modify your class, or wrap it, so that it can be called from within IDS.
Register your interface with the DBMS (each database within the DBMS
instance).
Use it.

Worry about re-entrancy and non-blocking rules.
