RE: Socket Tutorial and HTTPAPI



Hi Raul,
Thank you for the suggestion. I know that HTTPAPI can receive data
without problem. My main concern is to have a service waiting on the
HTTP server accepting request and then subsequently processing it. Does
your implementation provide service (i.e. SOAP XML) to other caller via
HTTP?

Thanks,

I use HTTAPI to receive data and the Apache to send it (via CGIDEV2)  
Works fine, I feel something similar will solve your needs, easier than 
sockets.
