Hi! I'm going to implement a data logger and a GUI frontend in FreePascal. One (daemon) program gets data from a device connected via USB and stores it to a file. A second program, the GUI frontend, connects to the daemon and can retrieve the measured data and other stuff. Additionally it can send commands to change the measurement settings.
All this is quite a typical application for RPC, so I plan to use the Web Service Toolkit with SOAP. Usually the frontend does a remote procedure call to the backend. There is one important problem I'm facing now. I want the backend (service provider) to notify the frontend (service consumer) as soon as a new measurement value has arrived. So this is the reverse direction of communication. Is this possible? Can you please point me to information how to accomplish this?
