Dear,
There is a mechanism related to win32_http_server() based on an optional
filename (find_option("stopper", 0, 1)) which starts a thread, checking every
second the presence of that file and if found triggers the stop of the http
server feature.
I don't get the point of this. It isn't needed nor used when running as a
service (NULL passed for this parameter), only available when running as
command-line (server or ui), and it looks like by default that option is
undefined. Yet I have not seen any issue stopping the process using ctrl-c.
Why would sometimes a file used a semaphore be needed to trigger the
termination of the http serving feature?
There must be something I didn't understand or see. Or this is a left-over
from something else. Would someone have an insider view on the matter?
