hi, i am thinking of recompiling few clipper text app to work with web. the idea is to use ajax or flash as client side user interface, while having recompiled app on server side. nothing heavy duty app, just to have "renewed" interface.
i want app instead of painting on display, to send "primitives" to tcp/ip connection, and user client [ajax or flash or activex] to receive the other end of connection, and to paint user's screen inside web browser. "primitives" should be something like "x,y say something" or "x,y,guid get something" user interface [ajax or flash or activex] should paint the screen, and return user response like "guid=something" the main conversion is done by tcp/ip layer [instead of display] so app will believe that response is coming directly from user's keyboard. in such a way, app internal state and web user interface may stay synchronized, and app to work. my question: in harbour, is there some kind of [as described] tcp/ip conversion layer that may convert app screen output to some tcp/ip outgoing message [and incoming, of course]? it seems that it may be done even with the pp [replacing input/output functions] but special terminal lib could be more suitable is there something like that? thnx! _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list [email protected] http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
