      Hello!

      I was developing my program with direct client to MySql connection relationship, but a friend tolds me that is unsecured... he says that i need to use REST because is not hard to see server autentication using a dessembler program..

      I'm pretty new to this thing, is that true?.. ..
      I was looking there is a plugin Qt REST Beta never used of course...

      Any suggestion?.. or can i safely continue using the original relationship?

      Thanks

        @U7Development said in About client to remote database connection:

        see server autentication using a dessembler program

        This is only true if you store the authentication data in your app.

            @U7Development Do you have to store it? You could ask the user for the authentication data. Or do you want to avoid this?

              @jsulm i would like the user select a preset (from a QComboBox) and then he types his password to login...

                So, no need to store the password anywhere
