So it would be a faceless long-running app, right? Sounds like some
experimentation is needed to see what is possible. Seems like it could
listen to a non-web port and respond to requests there. Do traditional
DB calls go through the web server? If not (and maybe if so) you could
possibly follow their model.
They go through the Web server when the developer cares about security. :)
The trick here is that LC Server is designed to run as a CGI; that is,
the process is born, lives, and dies in the time it takes to satisfy a
request.
So what I need to work out is how to launch it and have it sit in a loop
waiting for communications over a given port. Probably doable, but
would be nice if someone had already worked out the gotchas.
