Hi Bruce,

 

Thanks for that. Although not something that I think I would directly use in
the way you have it (damn that is a log of pages), it certainly gave me an
idea. 

 

In my DP web applications, running CGI and dynamic reports from DP can be
quite slow, so the idea of caching lookup tables as plain XML files rather
than running DP each time is an attractive thought. Additionally I could use
other simple web reports and run supplementary procedures to schedule cron
jobs to update any look up tables that may have changed look up tables; eg
regenerating lookup tables of items in the database from web reports when
items are added or removed. The lookup tables can be kept away from the
public folders so users can't download them but where my PERL script can
access them. 

 

Bruce, you seem to be still doing some web work in DP, have you been working
with the dynamic creation of output from DP via CGI and transaction logs?
Maybe we can share ideas. I feel like a sole soul in this area.

 

Regards

Brian

Thanks Joe,

 

Firestorm is not involved at all in the newer demo, which is purely DP
(except for a generic CGI script). This is the one from
http://www.sanbachs.net/ufv/

 

The older demo (from http://www.sanbachs.net/cdi/ ) depends on Firestorm.

 

The only experience that I have with Firestorm is on a Linux (RedHat RHEL3)
server.

 

Thanks again and best wishes,

Bruce

I had forgotten about Firestorm. Very impressive, Bruce! Has anyone tried
running Firestorm on apple servers?

 

Joe.
