Bernard, Thanks for the kind words my friend. :-) I can barely believe it has been 15 years already, it feels like yesterday. Don’t worry about the database library, I’m just going to relicense it as MIT which will make it free to use for all use cases. I’m no longer providing support or

Hi Andre It was probably 15 years ago when you said "I want to build a http daemon in Revolution". You were a young man :) BTW I've started using your dblibrary recently. If I pay for a license, will you get the money? Can you provide a link for where to make the payment? Regards, Bernard >

Just an update, the httpd library works on mobile. The httpd library I’m mentioning here is the one bundled with LiveCode. I think Malte built it, it is very similar to the one I built in the past but I am sure it is a bit smarter. I’ve created a demo stack at:

Maybe the user wants to allow connections rom desktop computers to the mobile App to upload data to the mobile app. The idea itself to do the data exchange with a webserver running on the mobile app is not bad. Another solution would be mergFTPD, but that external is only available for iOS.

Hi Bernard, The user should set up an LC Web Server with a database connected to it. The LC Apps should all then send information to the LC Server, and the Server will send information back to the LC Apps. I think any other way is going to be a huge waste of time and energy. Good luck, Rick
