We have a rather large Mac 2004 client-server database for a client that uses SuperReportPro and Footrunner for producing reports. They have over 10 applications running in A4D for data collection and other uses.
Without going into the sordid details, we are done with using SRP and FR for producing complex reports. What we envision is utilizing A4D as a general purpose scripting engine to produce the data we need and then SRP (or other) as a layout template for delivering the reports on the client. So, since the a4d files live on the server, I was wondering if anyone has done something similar and has had experience with executing the files on the server and sending the resulting data back to the client. While executing the needed a4d report file on the server is straightforward, what I'm trying to figure out is the best way to send back all the variables that I need once created in the a4d space. Do I pack them all into a blob and send them to the client where they are simply unpacked? Or use objecttools? I was thinking there must be some tool(s) for doing this generically. Does anyone have direction for me?
