Hi All, I’m using 4D Server with the web server on. I want to have a stored procedure on it occasionally use HTTP Get or HTTP Request to fetch some information from a web service. The amount of data sent and received is very small (less than 1 KB), but the web service usually takes 2-3 seconds to respond. There may be days when I need to do this several thousands of times so I will probably want to split the requests into multiple processes.
My question is whether the HTTP Get/HTTP Request commands are non-blocking. I notice the documentation says these two commands are preemptive ready, so I’d like to assume they won’t block other processes, but is that only true if they are run in a pre-emptive process? I’ve also heard that these kinds of commands can really slow down the rest of the server. Or maybe this only applies to the Internet Commands plugin calls? I guess I’m looking for experience/insight into this before I get too far down the road. Thanks for any comments. -- Cannon.Smith Synergy Farm Solutions Inc.
