server vs not server

I have a bunch of stacks that run, constantly, doing a variety of things. Some are even run as daemons by other processes. So, I suppose they could run in server, but I'm still unclear as to why I would choose to do that. -- On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth On the second d

Hey Mike, Most daemons I have built with LC will poll a folder at a set time interval, and act accordingly dependent upon what it finds in the folder. A polling interval set too short can make the server slower. Setting it too long makes the users complain about waiting 30 seconds or a minute. Us

Roger, But why do it in server instead of just having another instance of LC running, sitting off in its own space? Since you don't have a message box, any output is going to require email, push, or writing to a file. Is Server just a beast for speed? You can't possibly save enough memory from a

Mike, I like not having to leave a session logged in just to run a daemon, or a LC instance. If there is a power failure, my server reboots, and scripts are available. Otherwise, after a power failure, I have to log in and start the daemons. It is speedy, but for my applications (in-house), wha

Well you can see how that would make the LC browser object horribly insecure. User clicks a link and you take him somewhere completely different? Or somewhere else in another browser object?? K! I don't think you can get that kind of control, and I would be very afraid if you could. Bob S

If you were doing this from an html form, the file in question would be uploaded to the server's temp directory and the php script can access it from there using the "tmp_name" key. I think the $_FILES array is created as a result of the enctype setting. Not sure how you would replace all that v

I'm trying to put as much of the logic into script only stacks as possible cuz I want my application to be open source contribution friendly. Livecode actually makes that counterintuitive because it's so tempting to put little handlers in each control. On Jan 20, 2016 12:45, "Bob Sneidar" wrote:
