ice library

hi,
not sure if I should post here or on zeroc's forum.

I've recently discovered MoSync and started to play with it. cool stuff guys.

now to my question. I've found this "middle layer" if you so will called ice from a company called ZeroC. It seems to me like in many applications it would be a great fit with MoSync. However, they have one version for iPhone and one for Android... Since the iPhone version of their library is in c++, could the same version be used by MoSync or would there be problems? I'm fairly weak on yhe low level stuff.

thank in advance for any answers

Yeah, it may be possible. Ice seems to provide a system for serialising objects for network communication, which can be quite cool. There is a version for embedded devices which looks most suitable for MoSync, but I can't find their source distribution to have a look at it. A lot will depend on what is in that source code, but potentially you can recompile Ice-E in MoSync and use it.
